What was the focal length for this one? How close were you?

The focal length was 260mm, and the image on the screen is cropped from the original. But I was still fairly close - front row of the spectators at the Blue Angels practice field.

Thanks, This means I can get an image like this with my 300 mm. 8^)

(And feel it in my bones at that distance!)
