Skydiving

First time out shooting skydiving yesterday. Overcast day for the most part and the sky divers had to land with the sun at their backs, so I was shooting into the sun for the landings. Made for a bit of a rough time. That plus I am not a skydiver so I was kinda guessing whee they would land....
Plus most of my skies are just kinda a dullish blah white. Was able to salvage the odd decent sky though when conditions allowed.

Anyways, LR is chugging away at most of them ATM but I got a couple teasers up.

This was the first time they had a helicopter and first time for virtually all the jumpers to jump from a helicopter.
