Thanks! Ya that one was more luck than anything. The weather was really crazy with passing storm clouds. I guess the plane and I were in the right place at the right time when a bit of sun broke through providing that cool haze and background gradient.

Hi Chasinglight.
Beautiful shots, all are very nice, hard to pick favourites, but I'm going for the first and last.

Cheers, Graham.

Well, I don't get out much... :-[

I visited the Focrates site to set up my 5D mark III for birds and think I have found a cool way to practice... should I ever see a bird out here in the desert.

I know, I know, but this is all I've got. Canon's 70-200 is the longest reach I have right now too.

Big crop % and Focrates has made a believer out of me.

Hi CanonFanBoy.
I posted a whole lot here ages ago from a model air show we managed to visit whilst in France for the DDay commemorations.
The hardest to shoot were the model jets, damn they are fast!
Link to the album on my Flickr if you are interested, they were taken when I was even worse at this than I am now! ;D

Hi Erik.
Great shots, so much so that the thing that jumps out is that the props are not all lined up, : someone needs to have a word with them about that! ;D ;D

Cheers, Graham.

Hi gunship.
I'm not really into modern jets, not until we get the afterburner shot and your F-15C shot is excellent, nice job, good shot.

Cheers, Graham.
