Blue Angels


Blue Angel Number One sits on the ramp at
NAS Oceana at sunset, just after a rain.  You can see the reflection
of the brilliant orange sunset just under the canopy.
Blue Angels Five and Six on the ramp in front of the sunset.
It had been raining all day and just as we arrived, the rain stopped and
the sunset appeared through a gap in the clouds.
