Nice shots! No.3 is my favourite.

p.s looks like your sensor could do with a quick clean!

interpretiv · 15th of July 2009 (Wed)

wow, incredible! the first two (sound barrier?) look awesome

Good Shots. Did you underexpose? It would appear, to my eyes, that I am seeing a bit of noise, from where you tried to boost the shadows.

Nice photo's.

My favourite is number 2.

Beautiful Super Hornet shots!

Excellent captures on the vapor shots.

interpretiv: It is water vapor around the plane, not sound barrier.

Nice shots of them!

Excellent captures, must have been awesome to see this demo. On your first 4 shots I noticed your ISO was at 400 by the looks of the light you should have had plenty of shutter speed at a much lower ISO ,your last 2 shots were at ISO 200 and look quite a bit cleaner especially #5. I never go over ISO 250 doing aircraft unless its dark outside (after sunset). Just my opinion.

Great shots - love #3. One request though - when youpost multiple images, could you please number them? Makes it so much easier to make specific comments without having to scroll around the page counting

Very nice captures!

TTurrill · 16th of July 2009 (Thu)

Thanks, yeah I need to get that sensor cleaned........

Thanks everybody for the comments and input. James, as you know being there we had to deal with the position of the sun and yes I did underexpose slightly. I will remember to number those shots next time

.

I will keep that in mind this weekend for the airshow at Willow Run for my ISO Andrew.... Thanks for the tip!!
