This was a small air show in the UK yesterday and for the first time in ages decided to go and try getting some Red Arrows pics. The problem was that my longest lens is 70mm so not very easy!

Anyway, this is what I did at school yesterday :)

Thanks :)

I just logged on with another computer and the blues on my photos look badly off, I'd better get the calibration thing out.

Nice shots, I was there too with a similar problem with my longest lens being my 100mm macro! Will put some of my attempts up soon

Great shots! I once used a 135mm prime for an airshow, it was the longest I had. PIctures turned out pretty fantastic. I laugh at people who say lenses like the 70-200 aren't good for airshows!
