Is there a sweeter sound anywhere?

Thanks for sharing Jason. Always enjoy your work!

The T-Cat is a close second though.

My wife was on vacation lately and I had some alone time to watch old videos. In 1985 I taped Lefty's whole show from the stands (actually several times). One was early morning for some reason and no announcers, just his music. Sun was low, just bootiful!

That sounds wonderful. No pun intended.

As always, wonderful work, Jason.

So cool! Not to hijack Jason's thread, but there is nothing like two Tigercats in formation for sound.

Thank you Samuel!! I'm slowly going through all my old footage and redoing them with my newer editing software, and I will be updating the cat flight video as well.
Those were some fun times working on Mike Brown's race team!! Here are some shots of me in the Tigercat on the way back to Ione after the races one year. Mark Watt was in the backseat of September Pops taking these fine pictures.

Jason, as you always mange to do... you astound me with the quality of your imagery! I'm sure you would have an easy buy into a career as a cinematographer! I'd wager, with your talent level, you will astound us over the years with your accomplishments!

Just as an aside. There is something very special being able to view an airplane in flight, as in formation photography/cinematography! I may never get to do it again but the few times I've had the opportunity to shoot in formation.. well, you just have to be there.

Hey Wayne,
Sorry for the late reply, thank you very much, I'm glad you like them!! The funny thing is my wife is always telling me that I need to get into some type of job shooting video but I've never taken the plunge. I just like doing and sharing it with everyone. I'm just finishing up the Chino show stuff, and then it's back to posting all my old Reno footage.
