sunray Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I went to the Scampton Air Show on Saturday and loved the show. Had a spot or two of rain but that didn't spoil the show and I will be there next year. I am working through my photo's at the minute but here are a few you might like. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Dot Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 The Red Arrows break with the vortices is an excellent catch. I have never seen that before andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never seen that before andy Thanks Andy. I think the vortices appear stronger because it was raining at the time and they show up well against the dark rain clouds. Oh the joys of an english summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Dot Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Hi Ian, that last B-17 picture is great too as it is an unusal crop. What,if any, post processing are you doing? andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What,if any, post processing are you doing? andy Andy all the flying display photo's are taken with a Nikon D7200 set to "S" (speed priority) with ISO set at around 200 asa. I have the speed for props around 1/320 sec and jet above 1/800 sec but if I can get away with it I try to go as low as I can. The camera is set to take RAW images and not jpg. The weather as being mostly cloudy, so I set the exposure settings to over expose the photo about +2 clicks so you get the detail of the aircraft and not a silhouette but this is checked and changed as the light changes. The lens is a 55mm - 300mm zoom as it is light to carry and use all day. Once I get home I transfer all the photo's to my PC which can take a few hours. Then I use Photoshop's Camera RAW image tool to crop and adjust the image. For the B-17 all I did was ran the "clarity tool" from the Camera RAW tool over the image and drop the exposure a bit then saved it. Then I ran the Clarity Tool over it again. Then I saved it as a jpg. If the image is too blur to use I then use Corel Painter to produce things like this, I hope this helps and makes sense. If you have any more questions please let me know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
