Excellent work, I really like the two group shots of the Thunderbirds. Looks like it was as beautiful a weekend in Dover as it was here at my place. Great shots!

wow. just wow !!! Shot number five , i believe at 88mm ... must have been low ? Given a good photo starts with a photographer and ends with a lens , I too am curious to know what lens was used..

Thanks all, the lens I used was the 18 - 200mm Sigma walk around lens... Surprised? I think it's pretty impresive for what it is. Not an "L" lens by any means but under good conditions, this little lens can be quite a performer from about 70 - 200mm. It's a great lens to have when you don't have the time to switch focal lengths.

Here is one more pic of the Thunderbirds and also a C-5 Galaxy crash that happened a few months back.

Thanks, I really wonder what causes the rings to form in the afterburn...

Rumrunner, take a bow - even on my crappy monitor at work, these look outstanding!
