Hawaii Sea Plane Shots

Postby BigTruck » Mon Jun 09, 2008 2:56 pm

Went down to the Marina to catch a few shots of sail boats in Kaneohe Bay, nice windy day, and was plesently surprised to find the resident sea plane trying to land, he made six attempts and then took off somewhere, not sure where he went or if he was just doing touch and goes on the water, but it seemed like he was having issues landing...anyways here is the a few of the better shots, still learning how to use this thing haha...

Bit of trivial knowledge for you, bits of gilligans island was filmed on the closer island in the background
