It's that time of year again... My pilgrimage to Reno starts in a few days. Here is a photo (taken in 2011) of a P-51D Mustang and pilot Brant Seghetti taking a photo of his competition with his point-and-shoot camera. I'd love to see other Reno Air Race photos, but I'd also welcome any air show photos you may have.

Canon 50D, 1/200s, f/14, ISO 100, Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L

Stearman act at the Gathering of Mustangs and Legends in Columbus, 2007. I don't remember his name but he puts on one heck of show never getting more than a few hundred feet above the ground....

This last one is one of my favorite shots. This is Lt. William "Bill" Bunn, 307th FS, 31st FG, '44-'45. I met Bill at The Gathering and am honored to have known him. He is a fighter pilot. He and his fellow airman are why I go to airshows. We owe veterans more than we can ever repay.
