If your eyes aren't bleeding from photo overload yet, please have a look at my photos from this year's Oregon International Air Show. I'd love to hear what you think about them too, so please leave comments if you can.
These are a couple of my favorite shots of the F-18. You really have to be quick to get decent shots when a jet is doing high-speed passes. This guy didn't break the sound barrier, but he was definitely going places in a hurry. I missed a few good photo ops because I was messing around and couldn't get focused in time.
I still have a bunch more photos to edit. My wife was shooting too. This is one of hers. I love the way it looks like the wings have feathers.
millsa got some nice ones at the Australian Airshow earlier this year.
I don't have any of mine online, though, I did submit an F-16 shot for the March FS.
Really like those 2. Its great when you can catch the air movement around the plane. I also really like the Thunderbird shots. I got to see them 2 years ago when they came over for The Internatiol Air Tattoo. They were so awesome but the weather was a bit grey to get any amazing shots like yours

Thanks Janna! RIAT is a huge show and I'd love to see it some day.
Nice shots. Still can figure out what lens you used? I would love to do a media day at an airshow.
I used the 17-40mm for most of the shots of planes on the ground. For the rest I used the 70-200mm (with and without the 1.4 and 2.0 TC's). Becky used the 10-22mm and a 100mm lenses.
Media day was a lot of fun. There was no crowd to get in the way and we were able to talk with the performers one-on-one. I even played 'ground crew' a bit when Renny Price arrived late and needed help getting his plane into line with the others.
