alright starting this thread for all actual photos from SA2010 that you took yourself (i.e. don't link other people's picture here) including birds (metal), birds (feathered), birds (ah moi), and other sundries ;@)

starting off… for my very interested young friends… an introduction to the three basic "bird" shots:

boob shot





ass shot





up-skirt :P

couple more hot-ass… :wub:

Great shots. :wub:

Up this thread for you.

WOW...... ;)

Out of these five pics, the A$$ on fire 111 shot takes the cake. Also its very rare to have such clear blue skies all around such as the beautiful weather on opening day.

chope this post for my F-111 pix.

(1) thanx tomcat the F-111 was pretty in its own piggy way :lol: but heard that it is not flying today too. we probably got their truly last flight on Wednesday :(

(2) the rest, where are your pix? do post them up. its always good to show and as a photographer, critical comments are invaluable.

(3) thanx for enjoying the pix, don't forget to offer any other comments especially critiques.

FIVE-TWO,

Great take of the aerobatic display, especially the F111. B)

Unfortunately, it was very cloudy on the second day of the trade day. It was blue skies all round during the first day of the trade day.

Cheers.

Anyone down at the show today and managed to take a pic of the B52?
Caught a glimpse of it while I was in my office (in Loyang) but couldn't make it to my camera in time!!! I think it made a single pass over the show site only... :(

at the show. confirm b52 one pass only.
F111 no show. T50 very the guai guai today :P

not sure pic quality of b52. need check on pc to confirm

alamak wasted Bro... u brought the cam to office?

5-2, those are awesome pics! :D you are making me even more jealous now that I missed SA2010 :(

the B52 made a stealth approach, one single sweeping pass. I almost missed it if not for the other milnuts sending out alert :) and some of my other friends managed to miss it entirely! :lol:

Yeah man, I failed to take out my camera, attched the lens and open the window in less than 5 sec from the moment I saw the plane as it fly past the exhibition area. And it was flying close to my office as it banked left and flew away after the flypast. :(
I had assumed (wrongly of cos) it will not be the first plane in the air!!!

Uncle, looking forward to your picture man!!!

warspite, your IA drill need more practise lah, semula!!! :lol:


here's the B-52H LA 021 I believe to be from 11 Bomb Sqn of 2d Bomb Wing. Does anyone saw the colour of the tail stripe or a better picture to confirm?

thanx f14. BTW this was shot on Wednesday which was pretty cloudy. the trick was to track the bird and shoot when it ventures into the pockets of blue skies :)

@FIVE-TWO Thansk for the photo. Nice!

My best B-52 shot I got...

are you able to tell if the stripe on the top edge of the tail fin is orange or red?

this shot is pure awesome, how did you get it? it gives me a perspective as if I'm on a chase plane behind the BUFF :D

you can do better than that, imagine you're a MiG-25 pilot intercepting the nasty old unker Sam's bird :lol:

its simply the angle the aircraft was banking and the long lens perspective that puts you up close.

From other threads of the same aircraft, the band is red - 96th Bomb Squadron.

red? that means the 96th Bomb Sqn of 2d Bomb Wing.


2d Bomb Wing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2d_Bomb_Wing

Sqn tail code http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_B-52_...tates_Air_Force

The B-52 seems pretty far away from the show site?

xt, great shot of the thunderbolt and bird, and also the apache/F16 crossing. I didn't manage to catch them doing that :(

from the size (since I was using a fixed focal lens) compared with a B777, I'd say it was flying beyond the flight path out of Changi.

can you link those other pix? I checked my other pix and at best I can make it out to be orangey (meaning gold) rather than red.

a couple more pix before I get stuck in BSB for the next few days.


last show of the F-111, igniting the fuel…





hot korean ass…

This is one of the better ones.

Gold band looks like this, I believed.

Five-Two, your photos are indeed fantastic!! It is worth carrying 2 bulky cameras for the job!!! :D

5-2 : Nice pix, can experience what I missed :)

Nothing much to do in BSB, watch Astro or go to night market. I wonder if the good kolo mee in Tutong is still there. :)

Some pictures from Saturday's show.

---

Yeah man, i did not do my dry-run before the actual flying display. :(

Cmbt n Five-Two, very nice pics...you guys make me wanna go buy an expensive
lens !!!

Prime lense really says it all... Swee!
Also, the exposure is just nice!

For plane shots, on such a bright day, evaluative or partial exposure metering?

Unker, how was 7D's tracking? Fast fast?

Like this shot's contrast and vignetting... Polariser?

I was on evaluative, but did not enable the 7D's highlight priority feature since I do want to keep the details in the shadows. AF is really fast but I do not know how it performs in relation to a 1Ds MkIII.

Here's an interesting real world review of the 7D AF.
