Hello,

the last of the many
'til next year !


Thanks for the pictures.

I'm not at all envious of your having a sharper lens* than mine, or that
it was sunny at your end of the airfield.


*What lens, and were the photos from Saturday or Sunday?

I have a Canon USM L IS 100-400mm f/4-5.6.
Pictures are taken both on Saturday and Sunday (who said it was the day
of the Sun ? :/ ). Files are named after the date.
I was on the left side, near the B-17 (TFC Friends). Pictures during
the show itself were not so easy to do, with an ever changing
background, (from white to dark) and a changing light, a ray here, a
ray there, not here.

And these planes ! Always moving very fast, hard to follow ! And never
at the same place, never in the same light !
Things which made you consider a job as ID card photographer )

Nice. Mine's a Sigma 50-500, but the old version, no stabilisation.

I should have thought of looking at the filenames!

I was there on Sunday, so know all about the changing light. I was just
to the west (right) of the Sikorsky S.38.

Absolutely.

Same here. Dark blobs against a dark sky, fuzzy shapes where the panning
went wrong or the wrong speed was selected. I might even post a few of
the survivors when I get time.
