Jay are you freaking kidding me with this shot of Chambliss. That is amazing how close your able to zoom in and still how clear it is.

Cheers,
Chris

Dittos on nailing that shot. Speaking of shots, it almost looks like a bullet hole straight out in front of the canopy.

I'm guessing that it's either one of those bullet hole stickers or else there's a missing GoPro mount with slightly spider-webbed paint.

You know Jay im sure you dont need anyone to add padding to your ego but I am just flabbergasted by these series of photos, you set the bar to where most of us strive to be at and im glad to say I have shot with you and had the chance to learn from you

Thanks Chris. Very kind of you...

When the atmospherics at Oshkosh cooperate, it's a wonderful place to shoot in the afternoon and evening. The sun is squarely at your back and the air is usually clear and cool enough that heat haze is minimized (concrete runway helps as well.)

This year was a little bit more challenging. A lot of afternoon "mothership-sized" clouds and very, very hot by Wisconsin standards. Monday was 106F @ 70%+ RH = Heat Index of nearly 120F. Just Brutal!

It's so totally worth going though. This was my fourth and all I can say is I'm really sorry I didn't start going earlier. It would take an act of God to keep me from going back for as long as I'm able!
