I really suffered not having a CP filter, and a long lens, I only had a 70-200mm.

Would love some C&C.

Really like the first one, a slightly longer lens would be nice but it still works well. Was this the air show event up in Queensland recently? Wish i could have made it.

Nice post, love no 3 as an image, really tells the story I think you have done well considering the lenght you had to shoot with!

I loved picture 3 as well, very well composed. What model do you use? 30D,40D, 5D?

Very nice set. How many of those stunt flyers do you suppose would fit in the C-17? Looks like it could gobble up at least 6 of them. :)

Thanks - Amberly RAAF Base, just outside Brisbane.

Thanks too - I currently use a 300D, must be about 5 years old by now 6.3Mp doesn't leave a lot of room for cropping!

Great set, I like the concept of the first shot...but as mentioned before a longer lens would have been nice :D. Any shots of the Meteor flying?

Here you go - it's the only one still flying. Not the best of shots.
