Default My first time at airshow photography

Thought id share some of my shots from my first go at photographing planes at an airshow! First time back there in about 6 years! Saw the vulcan on sat but sadly it had tech probs on the sun, the day i had the bigger lens on, still got a couple of shots with the small one!!

My fave and its being printed in A3 for me!

Woweeeee, What a brilliant set of captures. The arrows with a 747. This is a set which I can relate so well to. I actually made some of the carbon fibre panels that are on the Eurofighter Typhoon. That is my baby. Your captures are stunning and worthy of any magazine.
Thank you for sharing your work which is my work in photograph. This is amazing photography. Thank you.

Dave.
