Re: the reds

Both shots are eye catching but No 2 is particularly attractive. Nicely composed an full of colour. It's the semi silhouette of the man that makes No 1 for me. without it my eyes would not know where to rest.

Re: the reds

Both fine and sharp and well exposed - though I think the red arrows should always appear... well... red!

Re: the reds

I'm a big Red Arrows fan and enjoyed these two Steve. They come to Bournemouth every year in August so I go on down there and take photos galore. I have also made a couple of posters which I sell on the door. Did extremely well with it this year!

The first pic is one that will particularly appeal to air enthusiasts who wouldn't need to be told this is one of the RA. I am guessing you have used the Omni filter here - to very good effect. Love the way it has silhouetted the technician in a position that fully interacts with the plane.

Second picture is a fairly typical shot of the RAs in arrow formation but nonetheless very well taken. Good capture. Did you get any others? I'd like to see more

Cheers,
Rob

lol i know what you mean but the shot looked pretty ordinary in colour so i decided to try out a classic style military shot with the mechanic silhouette and the canopy open. They look best with a sunset/busy sky or background but this was midday! If it wasn't for the silhouette it wouldn't be a good shot at all! The mono bug has got me recently lol

i made a poster last year but i knew myself it was rubbish and never even tried to sell it! i have a lot more but i will only post them if everyone promises not to mention 'dust' otherwise you'll be waiting till 2009 to see them!!

they were taken at RAF Leuchars with the 300d about half an hour before it broke! i've been a massive fan of the reds since i was a wee kid in the Junior Red Arrows Club, they are truely amazing! The french aerobatic display team were at Leuchars 3 years ago and their performance was not far behind the reds!

i'll post more soon!

Re: the reds

Both are super shots, the first just has the edge for me.
