Thanet Airshow pictures

[SlimJ]

Hey folks,

Great weekend down here in Kent, fantastic weather for the 2nd airshow in this area! Took over 900 pics on the Saturday and thought I'd share a few of them. :thumb:

Pics taken with Canon 30D and Sigma 100-300mm EX F4. Corrected Levels, sharpened, added borders, and cropped some of the images.


































































Some more to come of the Red Arrows when I get round to sorting through those.

Comments as always appreciated!

Cheers
James

Thanks guys, thanks for the nice comments!

Some of the shots are cropped heavily, specially the Eurofighter coming towards the camera with the trail of smoke from the top of the sky, that was miles away!!

NoisyGriff, were you piloting or the guy hanging?? But hey, good job, don't very often get to see a rescue, real or staged, being performed like that!

Heres some more pics of the Red Arrows, unfortunately not quite as many good pics as I had hoped for, and even with 5fps I still missed them doing there extremely close crossover

These really are great pictures. I was driving on Saturday and really enjoyed the great weather - perfect for an airshow.
