These are some of my favorite air show images I’ve seen. Well done.
Thank you very much, Jesse!
Here is a set of the Thunderbirds from Wednesday's show. But I also want to post a picture of the Geico Skytypers from the same show. They just lost a plane and its pilot today in Pa during the practice for tomorrow's show there. Very sad for the team and the pilot's family.
The first 3 Thunderbirds pictures were uncropped or just cropped a little. Sometimes when they got too close at 840mm, I didn't have time to switch to another camera with the 200-600mm on. I had an Sony A1 with the 600mm+1.4 TC, and another A1 with the 200-600. 600mm is still not long enough sometimes so I got greedy and went up to 840mm with the TC.
Geico Skytyper from the show on 8/18. They lost a plane and its pilot today.
Accidentally deleted the second half of this mornings pictures before importing and reformatted the card. Oops. Nothing special lost, more of the same.

Nice! I took a couple shots of a plane passing in front of the moon last Wed, this was my time to be able to have the plane in front of the moon, I could see the pictures in the camera but somehow I couldn't see them in the computer. No big deal.

Been trying for awhile to get this guy in flight and head on to boot.

Insane!! And I’ve tried with that little guy at that same spot and never succeeded. Shows what putting competent gear in the hands of a competent photographer can do!!
