Was taken at Will Rodgers Airport in Oklahoma City. Got to hang out with the Tora Tora Tora display team. Took over 600 shots will definately post more.

C&C welcome. What can I do to make it better?

I love the angle on the first one!

How was the show? We were thinking about going since it's so close, but decided not to at the last second.

great shot on the Val, I was at the show also and look forward to see what kind of shots you got.

These shots were taken yesterday at Will Rodgers. I did not stay at Tinker very long today because of the overcast conditions.

I am staying at the Rennisance in downtown OKC on the 12th floor facing Tinker. I watched the Thunderbirds from my balcony. It was a weird view but pretty neat. It looked like as soon as they were done the skies cleared up for a while.

The Tora Tora guys were putting on a little demo for some press yesterday at OKC airport. They did 3 seperate formation takeoffs and landings, came over a few times in formation with smoke. I really enjoyed them! They had a female photographer with them (kinda cute) and she looked like she was having a blast. I have a shot of me taking a picture of the Val and she is inside the Val taking a picture of me. There was also a old mig. (I believe a Mig 17 ) and some othe planes stopping in th FBO to fuel up. All and all it was a pretty cool day!

I like #1, except that it has a halo around the prop from oversharpening. Try USM 100 0.8 1 on the web image & see how that looks.

Looks like the highlights in the side of #2 threw your meter off.
How the subject affects the exposure & why manual keeps me worry free:

First set the f-stop & shutter speed you need. Then adjust the ISO.
Need an exposure crutch? (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=89123)
