I am an Air Force Guy, but the Thunderbirds' small white F-16 just doesn't compare to that dark blue, Blue Angel F-18. Great shot. If anything can make the CLE shoreline look good it's the Blue Angels.

What I really want to know is what lens were you using and from where were you shooting from. Great shot.

I agree with all the positive comments. There are a lot of Blue Angels photos out there, but this one is truly epic!
