More from Steve Redick:

Was able to get some decent shots of these vessels for the first time since I was shooting from a boat.

Chicago FD Helicopter 682

This from Steve Redick:

Normally I get much closer to the rescue demo at the air and water show. Since my vantage point was different I was able to get a unique but distant view of the air-sea rescue chopper maneuvering with the city skyline as a backdrop … pretty cool …

Chicago Fire Boat – Engine 2

This from Steve Redick:

this week I was able to knock a big item off my bucket list … to see the airshow from a boat. I gotta say it was an amazing opportunity, and although photo conditions were tough at best I was able to get some photos from a perspective many never see. We had a close encounter with Engine 2. I gotta say it’s looking very beat up. The paint is fading and all different colors. Got some images of the water display as well as some good views of all sides of the vessel. All of the boat images can be seen here:
