My wife and I returned on Monday from the flying weekend @ Temora.
This was my first attempt at an airshow AND using the 200-400 for a length of time.
All the images were hand-held and was quite impressed that I managed to last the day with this beast!
We had a great weekend with beautiful fine days and can thoroughly recommend the trip.


Lockheed Hudson bomber, the ONLY one still flying anywhere in the world.

I've tried shooting at airhows and it ain't as easy as it looks. You've got the right shutter speed for the props and to me the Hudson and the second Spitfire look the best.
Well done. :cheers:
