Nikon 1 V3 Hodgepodge | Skydiving Color

Nikon 1 V3 Hodgepodge | Skydiving Color  The parachutes at the World Parachuting Championships are so colorful. Even with the deep blue, bald skies, the colorful parachute makes the photo.

The Back Story  I spent the afternoon at the World Parachuting Championships.  This year the event was held only an hour away from where I live.  The event is mot crowded so you just wait for the subject to float down to you.    Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
