Some cracking shots there! Especially like the Buchon and DH88 - lovely views.

 

I bet they are pleased the show wasn’t on Bank Holiday Monday!

 

Many thanks for posting these.

Shaun,

I think these are some of the best shots I've ever seen.  And that includes some taken by professional aviation photographers!

Thank you for sharing them.

Any chance you could tell us what equipment you were using?

Every year I take loads of photos at airshows (not including a disastrous 2020 of course) and I might end up with a pitiful few which are really worth keeping - so I'd appreciate tips and info. from a real 'master'!!!  And I'm not idly flattering you - I mean it!

Thanks again,

Jonny

Great pictures Shaun, you must have had a fantastic day 😀

I can’t wait to get to the good old UK again for a decent airshow...

cheers, Jan

Far too kind! I use a Canon 7D Mk II and 100-400L Mk II combo. Typical settings for props are ISO 200 with a shutter speed of 1/320 in TV mode. I'll drop the shutter speed lower if I fancy going for additional prop and/or background blur, adjusting the exposure compensation as necessary. All edited using Adobe Photoshop Elements. Hope that helps! Fire away if you have any more questions.
 

Thanks again,

 

Shaun
