I arrived at the airport as a group of jumpers were descending, so I 
barely made it to the landing zone.  I spotted this young lady in 
serious discussion with a fellow jumper.

The Twin Otter landed and came out to take on the second load, which 
appeared to be tandem jumpers, probably starting from a lower altitude.

I then walked around and waved to the lady pilot.  I'll give her 
credit.  Her takeoffs and landings are nice and precise.  I set the 
shutter at 1/160th of a second and got a fairly good image of the props 
in motion.
