    Nice, I really like the lighting under the B-2. This reminds me that the Cape Cod air show is this weekend. I'm going to have to work really hard to get the wife to let my son and me go!

    This is my favourite out of the three shots posted.
    No matter how many times I see photos of the B2,
    still looks like a space ship to me nod.gif

    All great shots. #1 is the most interesting to my eye but #3 has the most initial surprise value, I still don't think B2's look like thay should be able to fly...
    Please feel free to retouch and repost my images. Critique, Suggestions, and Technique tips always welcomed. Thanks for your interest.

    Without computers there is no way that thing could :D The B2 shot is awesome! You captured it at a very good angle! Nice timming on your part. I missed out on an chance to go to an airshow this summer but hope to go in the spring:cry Dang college classeseek7.gif . I would be interested in seeing the B2 in B/W.

    All are really nice shots. Sharp. Great lighting you got. I'm super drawn to the sailplane shot. Turning in front of the clouds like that, with smoke on, it looks awesome. thumb.gif Wish I would gotten quality shots like this at the Baker City Oregon Airshow. Small venue but fun none the less. Sailplane pilot there, Manfred Radius, flew at night burning sparklers at the wing tips. Beautiful to watch and interesting to photograph. Micahael

    Very cool sail plane. Very cool B2. But on that second photo you really, really need a slower shutter speed. Try about 1/125 or 1/150 tops to get some blur in that propellor. Frozen propellers like that just look odd.

    This P40 was shot at 1/125, 200mm with 1.4TC, Canon 20D:
