Fleet Week is one of the highlights of the year in San Francisco. Thousands gather along the shore to watch fantastic airshows, salute the military and of course, watch the infamous Blue Angels fly jaw-dropping formations across landmarks such as Alcatraz and the Golden Gate Bridge.
This year will be different though. The pandemic means there will be no planes, no crowds and no parades. Instead, Fleet Week has been taken virtual encouraging people to learn more about the aircraft, ships, vessels and other things usually showcased in person from the comfort of their home.
I’m usually commissioned to photograph the airshows. This year I’ve had fun digging through my archives and found this image which is one of my favorite shots from the last few years. Enjoy!
