3 and 4 are my favorite.

Would you mind sharing which lenses/setting you used? I just took some photos of the Blue Angels flying over my house, and they're pretty aweful in comparison (I'll post in a new thread anyway). I could use a few pointers if you don't mind. Thank you!

Great shots....Like 1 & 3 most, but I can see why #6 is a favorite. The rear F18 looks like it is the 'ghostly' wingman for #4.

Thanks.

I used my Sigma 150-500 for the shots. m mode, f/8 or f/9, ISO 640, 1/800, AI servo.

Thanks Jeff. These were just some of the shots that stood out during my first pass through all of my shots. I still have many to go through and see if they are worthy of being processed, but haven't had much time lately.
