I love #4. Great shots all around though!

Great set.

Well done. As mentioned already, #4 is great. I'm going to an airshow at the end of June and hoping to get some good shots. What shutter speed were you at for #4?

That last one is outstanding!

Yeah the last one is jaw-dropping. The 4th one is also very cool.

The truck was a little bit of a miss. Weird that the one thing I'd expect you could capture with relatively little issue was the one that wasn't the best. Too close, maybe?

For most of the shots I used Av mode, f6.3 iso 400 which generallly resulted in a shutter speed of 1/5000
if there was a formation of planes I used f7.1 with slightly lower shutter speeds

yes, you have to be in a good location for that speeding "Jet Truck" and I was probably a little too close for the 100-400

Amazing photos. You could make a pretty sweet calendar with those Id buy it!

What lens/focal length were you using and how much did you have to crop in PP?

all shots were taken with the original 100-400, most were cropped and sharpened with photoshop
