After rather a late start, DH and I ended up at the Winston Salem Air Show today. Absolutely spectacular (what we saw of it) and a lucky snag of a spot at the end of the runway where the Aeroshell Acrobatic Team were taking off from netted some fantastic shots. They are certainly a very talented bunch of pilots!
It was all I could do to keep up with them as they flew right overhead. 12 frames per second would have been handy!
I also caught a few good pix of the B-25 as if flew overhead and a number other facinating flying machines including the lumbering C-123.
I’ve not tried to photograph flying aeroplanes before, certainly a bit of a learning curve and decent panning skills an advantage. Definitely great fun though!

Absolutely LOVE being at the airport during air shows. You did great with the photos. I am always criticized for “freezing” the propellers when shooting with too high a shutter speed. As it is always a trade-off of sharp images versus prop blur. Yours looks great.
Jets are so much easier to shoot.
Joanne Thieme Huffman - Great shots!
Bren - Fantastic shots! Makes you catch your breath!
