  • Biplane air to air

    Here's a little different viewpoint to compare with the various shots taken from the ramp/stands/pits and from the pylons. Something you don't usually see since we don't have jump seats we can put photographers in

          And the last one. The image quality isn't quite what I was hoping for. There's quite a bit more camera vibration out on the I-strut than I anticipated. If I have time, I'll have to build a fairing for next year...

            How are you changing the angle? Are you racing or photographing? <g> Peas

              I only have the camera out there for a couple of the practice sessions, and while it is there it is locked down to point in a given direction for the flight. Then I point the camera using the stick and rudder pedals. These flights are all pre-arranged so I'm not up there scaring the subjects as I try to shoot, as aiming the camera in this way can result in some interesting flying. Don't worry, come race day the camera is in the car and I'm racing.
