Very nice set of different views etc, do like the 16 with fluff but the first one stands out for me.
Thanks ! I do enjoy taking the slightly more "open plan" shots every once in a while. The light was rather nice then too, it was shortly after the big hail storm had cleared.

Great shot with lovely light.
But I am disappointed you did not get another Eagle in the picture, dam our low quality birds of prey selection in the uk !

I really like that shot with the dark moody sky - genuine or not!
Thankyou, it is relatively genuine - just cooked a little longer ! ;)

Re: My RIAT 24, I tried to keep the image count down, but sorry I failed !

Love the F15QA, normally a grey a/c against a grey sky doesn't do it for me, but this one does. Great panning with some slow shutter speeds too. Thankyou !! Sadly every time I look at the F-15 Ababil shot I become more aware how visible my poor editing is :lol: , it is quite clear that I have dropp...

Re: My RIAT 24, I tried to keep the image count down, but sorry I failed !

Absolutely stunning! How many shots did you end up taking over the whole airshow if you don't mind me asking? I think my final figure was around 10,000. But every evening back at the hotel I would delete huge amounts of obvious failures !! I believe 10,000 is probably quite low . . . . some of my f...

Very impressive panning (No.1) at 1/20th second, fantastic.
Thankyou !! The benefit of a 6 day FRIAT pass, you can afford to play with some risky shots that I would probably not dare to do at a one day event. :D

Danish Vipers at RIAT.

On reflection I believe the Danish F-16 was my favourite performer from this years show, here are the best of my shots of the anniversary jet and its stand in. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53947744835_98869ef8f6_h.jpg IMG_7892-DeNoiseAI-clear by Michael Farmer , on Flickr https://live.staticf...
