    Very nice work. There's no substitute for being up there with them.

    These are beautiful Glenn. At first I thought it was a typo when you said 2010 Airshow... then I realized you were in Florida. Jealous mwink.gif

    Up here in Canada, we have to wait another 3 months to get started, and 5 months for the really big one in Toronto at the end of August.

    I'd like to know what gear you are using for the colour and detail is superb. I particularly like the close up of your pilot. The detail is fantastic.

    Excellent work and very sales worthy images. I'll be looking out for your posts again.

    Cheers.


    Martin. :D

    Sorry about your wait for airshows up in Canada. Down here in Florida we've already been to three great ones (TICO, Macdill, Flagler) and have one of the Grand Daddies of Airshows (Sun n Fun - 5 day airshow) coming in just a few weeks. Can't get enough of it.
    Come on down to Florida. Seems that half of your countrymen are already here!!rolleyes1.gifroflrolleyes1.gifrofl

    The "in Cockpit" shots were taken with a Nikon 17-55. I really wish I had taken two more items with me.. a polarizer and a fish-eye lens.
    I was at the mercy of their schedule. But shooting this kind of thing in the middle of the afternoon under the Florida Sun is a pain. Sun reflection off of everything.. washed out colors if the planes are on the wrong side and shooting into the Sun. I would have preferred first thing in the morning or later in the afternoon.. but when someone is offering a chance to shoot in formation and then hands to the stick for 15 minutes of dogfighting you don't argue about the time (grin).

    Thanks for the kind words.

    Glen in Orlando
