When you manage to get a sneak pass but realise its much better being there than the photo depicts... and heavy backlighting which never helps.. but about the only bit of fluff we saw from anything on the baking hot day.

A 'dirty' MiG at Pacific Airshow

Jared Isaacman flying the MIG-29 at the Pacific Airshow recently, bloody awesome!

Heavy backlighting seems to be pretty much the norm at airshows which makes things pretty tricky a lot of the times.

Eagles launching in to the sunset at RAF Lakenheath .: nothing quite like it .. I decided against adding any music:

Now the nights are drawing in I’m looking forward to getting back to Lakenheath for some sunset recoveries and launches :/

If you were going to print one of these Spitfire images which one would you choose?

What a treat this was .. an old F-15c ‘Grim Reaper’ at RAF Lakenheath .. no longer flying but I gather used as a maintainer training jet .
I knew there was still one there but never thought I’d see it.

These were pretty cool... the NASA Freedom 250 F-5 Tiger II jet team and research aircraft at the Pacific Airshow

Do you not do full disks? or can't you...

I had this as a question, and for some reason it seems to be a big thing at the moment which i get to a point but for me the shot shouldn't just be about that... i like prop blur for the obvious reason that it gives motion.. no one wants to see frozen props, but whilst a frozen prop can be unwanted so can a full disk if the prop disappears, which is often what i see, it just looks odd if there's no light or colour on it.

For this shoot i was typically at 1/250th and that gave plenty of prop blur and also helped get shots whilst the plane i was in was being buffeted about in the wind.. i must admit that i assumed shooting would be fairly easy as there was no need for panning.. nope.. because you are struggling for balance in a plane thats going all over the place it was a lot harder than i thought... but.. during moments of less turbulence i did drop the shutter to get that full disk.. this was shot at 1/100th but the yellow tips and light make this work well, for me.

For me it's about the shot as a whole.. always will be.
