Mile High Skydiving

Our local airport has a skydiving business.  On weekends there are quite a few jumpers.  It was so nice today, I decided to go for a bike ride and I saw the divers in the distance and headed for the airport.  I was able to get fairly close to their landing area and wait for the next group to appear in the sky. It was fun watching them drift down but hard to get pictures because of the bright sun. Beginners jump in tandem with an instructor. I captured these two when they were almost down, maybe 75 feet (about 22 meters) from the ground.
