I just could not resist posting this after going to Colorado Springs last week for the graduation of my daughter from the Air Force Academy. The Bank of Dad is now closed! Great..more Nikon gear.
It took all I could do to swing my 200-400 and maintain focus.....what a pain...shooting at 400 knots across the deck. Zone focus with auto focus OFF, VR on and in active mode. Exposue was manual (metered off of a gray bush in the parking lot). Sharpen in PS...nothing else.
Just for kicks......Enjoy
PS More geese, tulips, Hawaii waterfalls, and some underwater shots from Fiji as soon I crank out a couple of papers for course I got roped into.

They look great there Randy.. the best I've seen of jet formations ever!
Being ex-Air Force and a current Boeing employee (I am addicted to aircracft!!) I am FULLY digging this!! Well done Randy!! I know just how hard these kind of shots are so well done!!
And CONGRATS to your daughter for graduating from the Air Force Academy!!!! That is even MORE awesome!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats on the Daughter, but foolish you for thinking the bank is closed
Pretty sweet image, but picky ol me would rather see these bad boys without overlapping at all. I just cant get past that in this one.
