Only had a real quick look at my shots so edited the Viggen ones first, will be updating later with the other aircraft types from the decent flying display.

Nice looking set 4&5 for me

[nigelblake]

Excellent work Craig! The processing is spot-on, great detail and the consistency of colour in that sky on all the shots is exactly how it should be done, very nice indeed!

Stunning photos. Love the first of them - wish I'd managed to get up that end of the runway. Where we were stood they were off the ground by the time they were in shot.

Thanks for all the comments, much appreciated.

Toetapper, I was using a Canon 5D Mark III with a 400mm f5.6 lens. These following shots were taken with the same lens but with a 1.4x converter, and the odd shot is take with a 70-200 f4 IS.

So here is an update carrying on with the Saab theme and a couple of other assorted types before I get cracking with the 3 F16 displays, the Dutch and Turk produced probably some of my best shots but I took so many it is hard to know where to start, I will update later on with those though.

Craig
Very nice shots.
Were you inside or out?
Were these all with the 1.4 Teleconverter?

Harry

[Craig_85]

Thanks both. Harry, I was inside on the Saturday and yes, the F16's were all taken with the 1.4x on.

[nigelblake]

Great additional images, 21 & 23 being my picks from them!

[zoomer]

Fantastic set.
Viggin shots in particular... make me wanna weep when I look at mine!
Have you used some light HDR-type technique on the Viggin/Gripen to bring out contrast detail?
Whatever, it works!
