Whoops. I missed out. Time really got away from me this year.

Aw yeah. Nothin' like Facebook gaming in SLI.

Yeah, well, when ya don't have it painted on the jets...

Well, they have to complement docu-fantasy like "The Arrow" (the miniseries with Dan Aykroyd).

Despite the sound (which I agree could have come from a dozen different hair bands from back in the day) that track was part of a January 2011 cd release.

If it were a matter of looking at Katy, you might have a point.

Listening, on the other hand...eesh.

Very cool "surprise" too... (Don't want to spoil it for those who have yet to watch the replay).

"Queens Birthday" flyby?

Thanks for the tip Deuce! I'm afraid most of my shots look like garbage just because of the weather. :oops: Yeah, the cloud cover will kill the camera's metering. I'd use at least +.5 and probably +1.0 compensation for that...and it might even need more. Depends how smart the camera's metering is. ...

Airshows are quite a bit different for me. Usually I'm shooting ISO 5000 at f2.8 to get 1/400 shots - most of my paying work is youth sports, and generally indoors.
