My photos ***UPDATES ON PAGE 2***

***NEW PHOTOS ON PAGE 2 - UPDATED 1st JULY 2010***
i got a new camera a month ago (Canon 500d), so thought would share my photos

first set is of Bournemouth Air Show. was pretty challenging for me to go there, so many people, been thinking for weeks where a good place to stand on the beach would be (least amount of people). In the end i just went down there and sat right near the water, put my headphones on and forgot about the thousands of people behind me lol

Some of the photos aren't that great, i bought a budget zoom lens (canon 55-250mm £157) and some of them are kinda blurry. next will get a macro lense

Well done, really nice shots and well composed as well. You might want to clean the sensor though, there is a nice big splodge on it.

oops, i think it was a piece of sand, was really windy there, will remove in photoshop and reupload at some point

Amazing - you could get these published... you should talk to someone about that - they are fantastic and maybe you could make some money.

Absolutely beautiful composition and --- WOW --- loved it.

Thanks for posting.

And the only real blur I saw as when you were focusing on an object and the foreground was blurred - normal (to me - and adds to the quality of the photo). And the only other one was a slight blur as the planes moved past the Theater but the theater was a better focal point in that one anyway. I enjoyed all of them.

JMHO as I am no photography expert - just took a class in college.

Wow, they are amazing, love them

Good stuff, especially for a budget zoom! The one with the underside of the Spitfire(?) is particularly good. Well done!

I really should keep my eye out for air shows and such like around here. I rarely shoot at the 200mm end of my main lens's range, and air shows are an ideal opportunity to rectify that.

^ yeah I picked that one as one of my favs too because of the lighthouse --- I'm a lighthouse fanatic

found out today that on average each of the days there was 300,000 to 350,000 people!

Those are amazing. My Dad used to take me to air shows as a kid, so this brought back some really nice memories. Thanks!

The third one is a P-51 Mustang, if I'm not mistaken.

Those are really awesome. Looks like it'd be really neat to watch. I was trying to remember my favorite pictures but there are too many :] One that I really love though is the day 2, part 1, second picture down. Very cool

 

[TorLin]

Cool pics
do you have a web gallery?

 

[meowgirl]

amazingo^_^o! I really like the one where the two planes look like they are about to cross each other

 

[Roberto]

holy ****. Those are awesome. That must have been the craziest air show ever. Like it was the end of the world and someone said lets have an air show.
