lolol did you have a bad CF card? There are too many colors in that contrail! I should shop that ;)
Darn Stinky CF Cards! Fred, go for it... feel free to "edit" :cool:
Super hi res image of T-39 Sabreliner. At one point during the show, I was walking around taking environmental shots and got too close to the Sabreliner to cover it in one shot. Not feeling like walking back and having to dodge people getting in front of me, I decided to do a super high res stitched pano... the link below will take you to a Zoomify version which allows you to zoom in and see the details.

Manny, that's excellent. Super detailed for sure. I need to do some hi-res panos myself. What program do you use?Quote:

Manny, I am I stunned and speachlees that you got the HONOR of flying in the Greatest aircraft to ever grace the sky's... It took me a week to gather my thoughts to reply to this as every time I would try to reply I would start to cry in the awe of the incredible opportunity. The only thing more incredible than your shoot was if it had a Sherpa behind it for an air to air with another Sherpa. I just threw away my 7d as I understand that I will never have an opportunity like this. I am honored to have met you SIR
Caution, wake turbulance from the SHERPA!
I realize I haven't uploaded any Jones Beach shots yet, but you know what, Jones Beach didn't have the Sherpa...

While everyone was stuck gawking at this beauty taxiing past, I was able to tear my lens away just long enough to catch the world premiere flyby of the polished aluminum F22! I can't believe noone else caught it! Flew by quick, sorry for the blur/lack of sharpness...
http://dfalk.smugmug.com/Airplanes/R...XL/f221-XL.jpg
Dan, While the F-22 was so fast that I did not see it, the only reason why he went so fast past was he did not want to take up the Sherpa's airshow time! I was actually glad they grounded the F-22.... Too bad it was not the Thunderbirds year to be there, The probably would have rather flown down to Mexico to make way for the Sherpa, and we probably would have had a second high speed Sherpa pass!!!
P.S. I hear the real reason the Thunderbirds went to Turkey was because the Blue Angels played a prank on them and told them that the Sherpa would be there for the Jones Beach Airshow!
Thanks Manny for the info!Quote:
