 The one I posted last week is part of the main gallery, though I haven't had
 time to try that de-blurring software on it yet.  It took me long enough to
 get through all 321 (!) shots I took at the show!

 All photos were taken with the K500mm f4.5 at approx 1/2000, f8, ISO 400.


Terrific gallery, John.

I'm not generally on-list on the weekends (I've got stuff to do, so I
do most of my list stuff from the office), and often Mondays are so
busy I don't get much of a chance to cruise the list, so today's the
first chance I've had to look at PESOs and GESOs.

Some great shots there;  generally very high quality among all the photos!

cheers,
frank

Didn't have time to look (or do much else) over the weekend.  Good composition 
and presentation.  if you are photographing prop driven planes and helis, you 
need to use a slower shutter speed to stop them looking like scale models held 
in the air by an invisible string.  About 1/125th for props, maybe slower for 
helis.

John, there's lots of my posts that get no responses. Your gallery was 
very nice. I didn't comment since I didn't see anything that I could 
offer a constructive criticism about, exposure seemed to be good, most 
were sharp and good looking, and considering the limitations of your 
equipment you were very skillful, and I enjoyed looking at them. (Are 
you happy now?)

John,
It is a nice gallery.
I went thru it the first time, but it's a little large for comments.
I was impressed by the sharpness of the photos and the nearness.
You have filled the frame admirably in many cases.
I think especially of the shot with only parts of two passing jets.
The helicopter shots are rather spectacular,
especially when one is turned toward us.
Overall, these are fine and close-up shots.
Regards,  Bob S.

It's just bad timing. We've had a large run of PESO's  GESO's recently.

Interesting shot's. Makes me think it might be a good idea to go check
out the Red Bull Air Race that hits town next month.

 like scale models held in the air by an invisible string.  About 1/125th

Good point about the frozen props, though I like them both frozen and 
blurred, depending on the situation.  I wish I could have shot at a slower 
speed, but using a 500mm with my somewhat shaky hands and fast moving 
objects means I have to shoot faster (even with a tripod).  I did try a few 
shots at slower speeds and got the blur effect, but the whole plane was 
blurred, not just the props. ;)

Thanks,
John

There were an awful lot for dialup, sorry about that.  I've been on 
broadband for a decade now, and keep forgetting there are still plenty of 
people using dialup.  I wonder what the actual numbers are for people using 
one and the other?

I did offer that second link with only five of my favorite photos, but I

 Edit, edit, edit! Show *only* the best! No more than eight at a time
 if you want comments is my experience.

I have such a hard time deciding which photos to cut and which to keep. 
There are so many that I love, that it's almost physically painful to cut a 
lot out.  Now, had I been smart about it, I would have waited a month (or 
more) before even looking at the photos again, but in this case my family 
and friends were bugging me to show them.

One of my photo professors in college told my class about a famous 
photographer who would shoot then immediately develop his film and put it in 
storage without printing anything.  A year later, he would bring the shots 
out to print, and the emotions from the initial shoot were so far in the 
past that he could look at his images from an entirely different viewpoint. 
I can imagine that would make it much easier to be a good editor, since 
you're much less emotionally attatched to the images.
