Re: PESO sunset planespotting
Thanks Dan and Rick. In any set of photos, there will rarely be a unanimous favorite. For that matter, with just about any artistic expression, the stronger that some people will like something, the more that other people will dislike it, and often for the same reasons. Where one person will look at two photos and like the uncluttered photo of the airplane against the sky, and wonder why I even bothered showing the photo with the cluttered distracting background, another person will wonder why I bothered with the picture of just an airplane with no context, and will really like the one that shows the hustle and bustle of an active airport in the background. I would much rather a photo evoke strong feelings of both love and hate, rather than have it disappear without a ripple into a sea of indifference. On Mon, Aug 05, 2013 at 08:59:50AM -0400, Daniel J.

Larry, you are getting to be an expert on airplane shots. Beautiful low light photo on your first link. Saw the rest too on Flickr Fluidr. How do they allow you to enter armed with a Bigma? Lucky you. Keep shootin posting. Here is some resource I picked up from a Welsh (UK) low flying airplane shooter:- Since military fast jets travel at about 400-450 knots (750 to 850 kmph), camera settings become increasingly important. Continuous autofocus is a must for tracking fast-moving targets. Reducing the number of active focus points helps increase autofocus performance, too. Fast shutter speeds in the region of 1/800-1/1600 sec work well, but good action shots can be captured in-camera by using much slower speeds to blur the background and keep the subject sharp. Try something in the range of 1/125-1/500 sec. For cockpit-level shots, you’ll need a long lens – consider a 500mm or 600mm telephoto. Use wide apertures and high ISOs for action-stopping shutter speeds. Regards.

Thanks Bipin, that's awfully nice of you to say. It was seriously my first attempt at photographing planes since I owned a camera with a telephoto lens. How do they allow you to enter armed with a Bigma? Lucky you. I was just outside the fence, I used the GPS on some of the shots, and just updated the location info on the rest. If you click on the location, it will show a map of how I was in the parking lot for waiting for people to arrive, just off the end of the runway.

They're a bit rougher than I'd like. I was trying to not blow out the colored lights, so everythng not self illuminated was exposed a bit lower down into the noise, even so, I got a few decent shots, artistically if not technically: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/9418916483/in/set-72157634899968298 Photographing airplanes is definitely a speicalized skillset that I haven't fully developed yet.
