I hate to bring such an old topic back from the dead but I thought it would be a good place to ask: do you have any tips for shooting evening/night shows? On the surface it seems fairly straightforward as far as exposure/equipment/etc. and I'll be browsing some metadata beforehand, but I've never ph...

I think these turned out pretty good for being taken through binoculars, I would not have thought to do that. Nice job!

It will be a few days before I can post some pictures, but here are a few of my thoughts on the show. I'll get my biggest gripe out of the way...I thought the flying lineup was excellent and there's a chance it would have caught my eye enough to make the trip down there on its own. That being said, ...

That's sad to hear. Ellsworth last year was the first show I heard him and I really enjoyed his announcing.

Got the car, hotel, and vacation time booked for this one! Although this will be a short trip for me, driving down from MI on Friday and leaving a little early Sunday to get back for an even on Monday - so I'm keeping an eye on the weather and if it turns into a rainy weekend I'll have to bail. I've...

Here's what I'm planning on if I can work it into my sc...

Prior to 2022, it was great. $150 for the entire weekend: two hour early entry, media parking, and the photo pit. Best deal in airshows, in my o...

That picture is just about enough to get this guy down there...if all works out, I'll be able to let you know if I was able to get in the cockpit or not

Do the B-52s usually do much flying at this show, or just a few passes? Do they allow you to check out the cockpit?

To put it another way, if the B-52 were my favorite plane and I made the drive from Michigan primarily for that…would I be disappointed?
