You must have really been swinging that big ol' lens in a hurry to get such a sharp shot in a pan...
Good One...

Hi Mado,

Thanks, and no, not in another plane, though I wish I was in one of these. The plane was very close to the ground doing a low pass at 240mph. Yeehaw!

I hear you Norm. I won't go to the second story to put Christmas lights on my house, but somehow I would still love being in one of these, even upside down.

Hi Jerry,

Thanks, and it was a bit of trial and error (mostly error) to get a decent shot. The 600mm comes from a 300 2.8 w/2x TC so it wasn't as bad to swing round as a full 600 would be.

Thank you Tom, glad you liked this one. Being there and hearing the 400hp motor was incredible!

Thanks Robert. I appreciate that. It was pretty cool seeing this pilot rip it up right in front of us.

Thanks, it was really fun to see in person. The sound from that motor is killer.
