Here are some of my shots from yesterday 8/1. Taken from I-90 bridge East side. Lighting was pretty tricky. Camera used was an XTI with Canon 300mm 2.8L. I haven't taken the time to do any noise reduction on them yet so a few have a little grain to them.

    Thanks! #7 normally doesn't fly in the show and is used to take media up for rides. I assume #4 had some sort mechanical issue and it was brought in as a ringer.

    Awesome shots man. This (the photography, not the flying ;))is definitely one of the hobbies that I would like to do when I get the free time and money.

    My Rebel is the Xti, last years model. The new Rebel is the XSi.

    I just started getting into the hobby this past April. It's pretty fun! Fortunately for me my brother in law shoots professionally so I have access to his len's when they are available which makes all the difference.

    Thanks!

    Danger, you know about Fairchild airshow next weekend? I wish I could drive over there for that. I would definitely go if you can. They will be doing an F-22 Raptor demo! That is something you should see.
