Daytona Beach, Wings $ Waves

Excellent airshow, I had a chance to work at Daytona beach airshow for the very first time and from now on this is my favorite beach show. If I messed up some of the shots it is totally my fault because weather was perfect, sun gave perfect light and air quality was just great I couldn't believe that I'm shooting event over the ocean....

I was trying to be super creative !! I hope I meet your expectations :)

Tomorrow I will post something super extra creative from my vantage point, be ready :) SMOKE ON.... NOW.....

Wow stunning shots!

Hey Chris ... Glad to see you finally post some of your outstanding work. Beautiful light to say the least.

Outstanding Chris! I do believe you just put Daytona on my to do list for next year.

I have to agree with Steve about Daytona on the list, the light is sweet and looks like you're close to the action.

Daytona was a very good airshow, Light PERFECT, I can't imagine better light. Big surprise was the air quality, clean and pollution free. I really don;t like Beach Shows since I live right on the beach and I'm just tired of sand and water :) Daytona, so far was the best Beach Show I have ever seen. There is also some cool spotting opportunity at the airport from campus parking lot. Not many big planes so maybe it's not a spotting paradise but you can take some good pictures, parking lot is very close to the runway.

Good to know Chris. Definitely making it sound even more tempting.
