It saddens me to forward the news that our good friend and fellow photographer, Matt Quinn, has passed.
As some of you may know, he had been battling cancer for a while and was on his way to recovery.
Please take a moment to remember him in your prayers.

Practice after surgery

Post by PeteD » Sun Apr 10, 2016 4:04 am

Got an air show coming up at the end of the month. Just got the all clear to start raising arm over head. Have not tried holding the big gear yet so I went to the local airport to get some practice on moving targets.


This one is straight out of camera except for loading in PS for the watermark

The wind was really howling today also. Gusts of 40 to 50 mph not uncommon. As you can see from the big dust cloud, the wind was really kicking it around.

You know it has got to add to some excitement for the pilots of these birds when they come down almost sideways to the strip and at the last second, straighten it up.......

Nice shots Pete. Glad you're getting your mobility back.
