Bournemouth Air Festival: Day 2...
Day 2 of the Bournemouth Air Festival and I'm adopting a different approach for some variety. It is all too easy to fall into the trap of shooting an air display with a super-telephoto lens and miss out on the bigger picture. So, today I am carrying a second camera body and two other lenses - a standard zoom and a wide angle optic.
Although long lenses will remain the workhorse for such events, it is nice to occasionally add a bit different to a shoot.
Top: Merlin helicopter dropping anti-missile flares.
Second: The Red Arrows
Third: Sally B, B-17 Flying Fortress
Fourth: Faiery Swordfish (set against the Isle of Wight, some 12 miles distant)
Last two:: Eurofighter Typhoon
Top two: 24-70mm f/2.8G AF-S Nikkor
Other images: 300mm f/2.8 AF-S VR Nikkor with TC-14EII converter
