Oshkosh 2019, Updated 3 Sep

Post by Wallace » Thu Aug 22, 2019 6:07 pm

Well it was a month ago and I have finally cleared the backlog so I can start editing down the 5,000 odd pictures that I took at Airventure 2019.
Here's a small selection...

N839WA Epsilon, one of about six that were on the field with a towering CB that dropped a lot of rain over Fond du Lac on Saturday night

N35MK Mosquito. This is former Strathallan Mossie which has not flown for years, it still makes me sad when I remember this in the good days.

NL5420V P-51, one of the many that were here. A total of 18 managed the tribute to Bud Anderson later in the week.

N51ZW P-51, sunset in the Mustang creche is a beautiful experience. No "Joe Public" wandering into your shots, just a small number of photographers respecting each others right to be there

17-46035 KC-46. Monday night during the balloon glow. A hand-held, high ISO, 24 shot median stack composite to get the walking public out of the shot. Only got two, which isn't so bad.

NX7160C T-28 One of three on the Warbirds ramp that night.

N2805J AC-47. Well maybe not a real one but it looks like one. Another sunset shot with some fine warbirds for company

There will be a lot more to come but they will take some time to edit down and process.

Mustang sunset shot is one of the best aviation photos I have seen this year, an absolute stunner!

Using stacking to exclude people is a technique I've not seen before, but the KC-46 result is excellent.

I look forward to seeing more photos once you've processed them

Is that the Kermit Weeks Mosquito and did it fly?

A lovely set, the light on N51ZW is particularly stunning.

A piccie of a Spitfire for a change.
The other Warbirds park further to the back making the classic clean sunset shot that wee bit harder

The editing process is slowly rolling on towards the end of Airventure 2019, with Friday 26th and this cracking F-84C up at Pioneer Field along with some other Cold War jets.
It seemed like a good idea to go up to Pioneer Field and shoot the jets, it wasn't such a good idea to feed so many damn mosquitoes in the process!

Awesome set, well photographed. The light in the P-51 one just tops it off!
