The R5 AF tracking was dead on in that low light. I shot a burst of 100 shots during the take off sequence and not one single frame was out of focus. ISO was high and shutter speed was 1/80th, but just a few years ago that sequence would have been pretty unlikely.
I'm glad the last gasp at Alliance was well attended. I skipped it, planned on going to the Reklaw fly-in but skipped that at the last minute...family takes precedence of course.
I'm already hearing rumors of a return of airshows to NASJRB Fort Worth... hopefully the 5th largest market in the country will not be without an airshow!
Plus we had just returned from another week in the mountains.
The Aspen trees were in full color!
Gotta find a way to spend more time in the Sangre de Cristos!
My bride took off on a walk with the camera and came back with shots like these... she has an eye for detail!

I have shot a lot of fall foliage on the east coast, never been to Colorado for the aspen trees, sensational colors, Zane!

WOW, Jim! I have never seen the F-22 in an angle like this.
Cabo was right above me, climbed vertically and then rolled over the top and headed straight for me. Probably the last view of The Raptor any of our adversaries see........................ It's fun when you can brainstorm with your subject before the shoot and bring them to see the picture that is in your head, really up's the success ratio.

Croat soldiers and a nun in front of the cathedral in the old city. I remember that the nun seemed very uncomfortable with these rough tough guys https://i.imgur.com/mPtbhfW.jpg

War is HELL! And it is most likely the "innocents" that suffer the most while the leaders rest comfortably in their hi class "bunkers"!
Thanks for a "reality check" in a most combustible time in Eastern Europe!
