Even with a very small showing (I don't there was more than 10 people) we all had a fun time watching some very successful flight. The weather was perfect. The sun was at our backs and the wind was blowing gently on our shoulders. - saw that on TV once. :D Seriously it was a great day for rockets. You can find all my pictures here:

Remember all the motors there are experimental.

Some points of interest:

1. Alan had a horrible mishap with his Flying Butress. Everyone agreed it was the strangest behavior seen in a parachute. It was actually pulsating like a large jelly fish.

2. Jim Livingston's 9.5" Viper during launch.

3. My elDiablo with a beautiful launch on a homemade K1300 (Thanks Alan)

Nice pics PG. Small showing or large, it's always a good day out with your rocketry buds. ;)
 
That last pic of the El Diablo is fantastic! Plenty of detail to show the finishing and a great shot of the flame.
 
Very nice pictures Bro! What kind of camera were you using if I may be so bold as to ask?

Thanks... I'm using a highly used, highly beat up, Canon A20. A great point and click shooter.
 
I'd love to offer praise for your photos, but I keep getting this instead:

Yeah, stupid web server somehow switched to secure mode. I'm looking at it now. Right now everyone needs to use https instead of http. I will let you know when it is fixed.
