It must be air show season. We had one here yesterday @ Fairchild AFB. It was a really good time, but the weather could have cooperated a bit more. Most of the day was pretty overcast and I had a very hard time not getting a bunch of silhouettes. I took a bit over 1100 pics and still have to wade through them all and find the keepers. Here are a couple until I get to the rest. These were taken with a Sony A-700 and the relatively inexpensive Tamron 70-300.

F-22 Raptor. What an AMAZING plane.

Question: What do you do all week?
Answer: Mon to Fri. Nothing, Sat & Sun I rest!
 
Hey I was there too. Wow 1100 shots, I should have heard your camera going off. I think I got 300 or so. The forcast had called for a better day Sunday but we were told it was a much better day Saturday. Anyway we enjoyed it and got some nice pics too.
 
I wish I could have met you tripod3!

You are correct, Sunday was supposed to be the nicer day. It turned out ok, but was pretty cold in the morning. When it started to rain, I thought it was over, but it did not last long.
I would like to see some of your shots!

IMHO, you get a lot of lens for the money. It works pretty well for macro also.

The Tamron you used is the LD Di? The one with the macro function?

Then Tamron is going to owe you a fee for the sale you just made for
them ;)

Very nice!

Can't wait for an airshow now I have some decent gear... but nothing in the region this year... :(

Will have to do with regular spotting and GA experience until next year... got to do my first "outing" with the A300 at the airfield saturday, with a little air-to-air session with a Yak-52 from a Cap 10: http://s18.photobucket.com/albums/b105/Kilrah/photography/aviation/

Shot about 900 RAW+JPEG, only go time to process the shots from those 2 planes so far so I could give them to the friends, a lot more to go... but pretty happy with the results so far, and it's at least an interesting subject to learn about processing ;)

Keep your shots going, good luck for the sorting job, I've just been through it ;)
