I took my Granddaughters to this air-Show, but most of it was cancelled, because of strong of winds. This is what got off the ground that day. Also some that didn't.

Thanks angler-I don't know a lot about airplanes-but I love Air Shows-I'm learning a little more about shooting, & a little more about the planes each show. Thanks for looking.

Thank U Fkaufman- The double exposures were me taking a picture of my computer while my screen saver was in the fade mode. I would catch it in between photos changing. I thought they made an interesting picture also. Thanks again.

Love the first two shots of the T -28, I was stationed at NAAS Whiting Field, Milton,FL. from Oct. 1958 to March of 1961 and worked them and occasionally flew in them on maintenance flights.

When you are shooting prop powered aircraft, don't use a shutter speed faster than 1/250th of a second. Your first picture of the T-28 in flight was taken at 1/1600th of a second and froze the prop making it look like the engine had stopped. I didn't download the shot of the two P-51s but you have frozen their props also. I have included one of my shots of a P-51 that was taken at 1/250th and you will notice that it is obvious the prop is turning which is a natural thing for a plane in flight. You will have to pan with the airplane to make up for the slower shutter speed - especially if the aircraft is crossing in front of you.

Thanks for the help Shaun-I will try using a slower shutter speed next time. I will have to look up when the next air show is in our area, to see how long before I get to try this.Thanks again for looking.
