Photographed my missus jumping out of a plane yesterday. Was fascinating and terrifying in equal measure, made more so by a number of factors; a) my wife is terrified of wasps b) there were hundreds of angry wasps in the airfield viewing area and we had to wait 8 hours to jump c) I got stung, twice, a few hours apart but 2cm apart on the same wrist and d) watching the woman you love jumping out of a plane at 10,000ft and trying to photograph it at the same time with a manual focus 80-200mm is somewhat stressful.
That aside, it's a tremendous experience. Here are a few shots.
