Enter Stage Right...1,2,3,4...

the first of many shots from last weekends Chicago Air and Water Show!

WOW! I missed it by a matter of hours and now I'm REALLY sad about it! This is such a great capture with the contrails and the pops of red.

thanks @taffy I bought a new lens and whilst I had more misses than hits I had some shots that I really liked. I took notes about how I could improve and am looking forward to next year and hopefully getting the shots I really want!

@ukandie1 It's impressive -- what focal length does it go to?
August 26th, 2017  
Wow... so clear! Great shot!

@taffy it is 50-140mm constant F2.8mm on a crop sensor, but I used a 2Xteleconvertor with it, so equivalent to 152-427mm on a full frame sensor, but you also lose a couple of stops of light with the teleconvertor. Though I might not use it often I liked the idea of having a longer lens for the Zoo and close up abstract architecture. I meant to loan a different longer lens for the air and water show, but left to too late and thought what the heck why not buy something instead!

Thrilling! I've never been to an airshow, but your photos have given me the idea to find one and GO!
