NAS Oceana 2005

Eek - 2005 is considered "nostalgic"- feeling old now! Only got my EOS 300D in late 2004, so I was still getting to grips with the technology by this point. For some inexplicable reason I had it set on ISO 400 all day - on a beautiful, sunny day 
My processing technique also seems to have involved throwing away the originals once I had processed them, so all I have left are some fairly small JPGs which don't take too well to further processing. That said, I only have one picture of a 4 ship Tomcat break, so beggars can't be choosers!
I'll start with the best shot of the day, very happy to have caught this considering I'm not that good at flying shots:

I'm sure a fair few people on here are familiar with this little machine, once a common sight in these parts:
