Bill,

I like them both. The Mitchell is outstanding :thumb :thumb

I hope you don't mind, but I moved this to Other Cool Shots. Your shots are definitely cool, but not exactly sports :):

Good work and thanks for sharing,
Steve

Thanks for the kind words, Steve. And yeah, I can see moving the thread. I wasn't really sure where to put it in the first place myself.

Shots were taken with a 20D, a 70-200/2.8L and a 1.4TC. Made me really want a 400mm lens... Saw a guy there with a 400/5.6 prime. He spoke highly of it. Lust... lust...

Great capture......... I got to go to my first ever Air Show just a couple of weeks ago, had an absolute ball :clap I've never see so many aircraft up close as I did that day, and I was really amazed at how Helicopters come in so many different shapes and sizes.........this what I dont understand.....why are they all so different in shape :dunno what's the best aerodynamic shape :dunno if they are all so different in shape there must not be one shape that is more dynamic than another ??? ......... this is why I'm just a clerk isn't it :scratch :lol
