 Here is the colour version for art roflmao


The settings...left the file at my work computer, so I can't remember Oliver eyewave

Guessing: around F11, 1/500 ISO 500???

I took this with a 17-55 F2.8 Nikkor. The flightpath is over a road about 300 metres from the tarmac, so the planes fly around 200-300 feet above your head...I think I actually zoomed out to fit this in. I took about 150 shots of about 12 planes including a 747-400. I love this! Have done this at the same spot since I was 15 years old. I still have some of those shots.

A fantastic shot! But I'm thinking I'd like the color version better. Still a solid 7
