Something a bit different from the air-race, arrived bit late so not the best vantage spot

Qantas 767 flying over city


F/A-18 hornets in formation (silhouette)


Dare-devil pilots


These lucky people probably had the best view of all (envious =)

nice shots. like the composition in #2.

There seems to be strange linear noise in some photos which seem to work better for a vintage look in #3 but not in others. Was the noise deliberate?

thanks surenj, I am not sure if by linear noise you mean grain. These were actually shot on iso 200 film using an OM2n, and the 4x6 prints scanned on a flatbed scanner. But I did enhance the grain somewhat for a gritty effect=)

Oh, with the last pic, there was some sort of fire going on the the hillside which made for a "smoky background"

scanned photos make sense....

3rd one looks like a still from WW2 !!!!

Thanks blacknstormy, thought it would be appropriate given the vintage of the planes. =)
