Hank,

 

Stunning images, all of them. My favorites are 4 & 5.

Here you see in each image actually 2 jets, 1 of course is the jet airplane itself.

The other is the crisscrossing system of alternating shock and rarefaction waves in the engine exhaust,

also called a jet. Your images show those details beautifully.

 

Best, K-H.

Great stuff, Hank, especially the P40 and the F86 & Mig shots! You were lucky that the skies cleared so you could get those nice crisp, blue skies for a background. Got any more and is that F15 part of their collection?

Hank,

 

Excellent series ... I really enjoyed viewing these terrific images of these wonderful aircraft. You've convinced me to drag out my Telyt 350mm and start making some use of it.

Robert, really you should. There was a this Russian Eric Pelve who did some testing with this lens against the Leica 180 APO + extender APO 2X this will surprise many with his results.
