Olindo Mare made this 46-yard field goal to give the Seahawks a 19-17 lead with five minutes remaining, but Chicago rallied for a 25-19 victory in the final minutes.

But having spent the early years of my life living only two blocks from the &#8220;pits&#8221; of the annual Seafair unlimited hydroplane races, I still get a kick out of photographing these big, fast, if a bit balky, flying boats.

Sorry. Couldn&#8217;t help it.
Actually, this is a kick in the AIR.
