Star Wars Canyon

Keith--great shots! I was out there 2 weeks ago for the first time, pretty amazing experience. Here are the best of mine, we had two passes of two all day (F/A-18s in the morning, and F-15s in the afternoon), but it was worth it. I really like the color you got out of the canyon rocks, and of course those photos above are close and extremely sharp!

I was shooting with a 7Dii and 100-400ii.

Thanks Mike :) First day I shot with my old 7D and second day with the 5DS. All but the Vampire painted tail are with the 7D. I took a couple of passes to see the 3D panning required. Had 14 passes one the first day! I used the 300L 2.8 both days. The 7D with the 300 was a really tight shot and hard to keep them in frame.

Very nice series. I especially like the first shot. Welcome to CR :)

there is not a lot lower, faster or louder than a Panavia Tornado GR4 low level through the welsh MTA. This is Marham-37 in the 31-Sqn 100th Anniversary jet going for it on the deck, 250', 450 knots
