Ominous title, I know...

"Armageddon" is the name of this 16-Way Formation Skydiving team. They are training in Southern California for the US Skydiving Nationals. I wanted to get a shot that features their camera flyer (the "pictures in picture" are being taken by him with the camera mounted to his helmet).

Hope you enjoy!

This is too cool - how did you get on the plane? I am 56 years old and sky diving is the one of the things on my list of things to do before you know what :-)

mouse looking at list sky diving, hang gliding and ultralight left ...... must get busy this weekend. Thanks for the push.

Thanks, Frank!

MissMouse (Pam): Hey, the first jump is definitely an intense experience, but after that, when you know what to expect, it gets a bit more "normal". I have over 3000 jumps now.

This shot was taken with a 50mm 1.8 wide open (to isolate the camera flyer) with a 3-stop ND filter to get the shutter speed right.
