How did you arive at that timing? You only had ONE chance! GREAT shot!!

Thanks. The camera was set in bulb mode. When I saw the sky start to light up, I open the shutter with a remote release and closed the shutter when the rocket disappeared.

Excellent image. Based on the star trails, I would guess your shutter was open for about 25 seconds. Did it take that long for the rocket to travel that distance?

151 seconds.

Great Photo..... br br I also looked at your bird... (show quote)

Hmmmm..... I've been very happy with the 200-500. Pretty amazed at how sharp it is. It actually pairs great with the D500. Try using spot focus on continuous. Spot focus is my go to almost 100% of the time. Also try using back button focus if you don't already.

Extraordinary images from this airshow. Love the compression wave shots and the afterburner ones too. Harvards? in the intersecting formation are mind-boggling, as are the other aerobatic shots. You did exceptionally well - all of these captures are crystal-clear and very well rendered. You even manage to make the Warthog look cute! Many kudos in order here. Please stay well and keep on sharing the great work.

Thank you!

Best collection of Air Show shots I have ever seen. I would have been happy with merely one or two of those.

The administrator must have been so impressed he allowed you to post 36 shots when the limit is supposed to be 10.

Kudos. Great work. Thanks for showing us.

Thanks! The reason I get away with more than 10 is because they are links to another site and not uploaded to UHH.
