Riverside Air Show - Photo Report

[Victor Archer]

Jeff might only be 10 years old but he's entering his fourth year as an air show photographer. At this show he was using a Canon Rebel XTI with a Canon 100-400mm lens.

I had no idea an A-10 was that much bigger than a -51.

The A-10 is roughly the same size as a B-25.

Re: Riverside Air Show - Photo Report

Very nice work Jeffrey...I especially like the Heritage Flight shots.

Victor, I seem to recall you mentioning you were covering two airshows this past weekend..I assume the other was Pt. Mugu?

Got any shots to share?

Re: Riverside Air Show - Photo Report

Great shots. Lets see, when I was ten? I think I was still scribbling with crayons!!

When I was 10, I had a Brownie! It was a camera!

Wish I still had it -- kinda like my '63 Gibson SG!

Really awesome work, Jeffrey!

I had one of those too! I took a semester of photography in high school and never turned out anything that nice. Great Job!

I wish I had your '63 SG too. Those are highly prized these days.

Speaking of smaller than an A-10, funny to see a scale B-17 mixed into the photo group of real aircraft...Made me to a double-take there for a moment.

I'm still scribbling with crayons.

Crayons are a much underappreciated medium.
The subtle tones and color variations available to the artist are quite inspiring. And as long as the snot-nosed kid next to you does'nt hog his favorite colors you can color the ducky any color you want.

Well, I guess that's the real trick now, isn't it......

Re: Riverside Air Show - Photo Report

Hey, don't knock crayons... check out THIS GUY'S stuff.

BTW... Your boy does AWESOME work Victor. I wonder what the Pros think now?

Re: Riverside Air Show - Photo Report

Just being sarcastic...I've seen just about everything used by artists. I have a friend that does the most incredible portraits in baal-point pen. Bad part is it fades...
I've seen Mr. Marco's work before, very nice.
I've stopped telling Victor his or his son's work is good. It goes without saying!
