Embraer air-to-airs

Amazing

Very nice!!!

More amazing stuff mate. 😀

Thanks for the info!

This particular one is nothing short of stunning. I can’t even get prop blur like that on the ground, never mind in the air! Wonderful work, thanks for sharing. It’s nice to see some pre-digital images as well! 🙂

Here’s two more: CASA 235, and DC3 both taken on slide film about 12 years ago (and A KING AIR 200 SHOT ON A 6mp Fuji S2 DSLR). PMN; the Embraer images were both taken out the back of a Baron 58. I set the shutter speed to capture the prop discs, make sure the horizon is straight by aligning the camera to it during turns and turn the formation to get the light right and hit the button. If there’s no horizon, I dip the camera continually to the ground, align quickly and then bring it back up to the subject. Most of this though is really about the ability of the subject aircraft pilot. Almost all my ground to air airshow stuff is a complete waste of time. I love air to air though.

And:

And one more though it’s not an airliner

Great pictures.

Only the EMB shot is showing for me but would you mind going into a little detail as to how you went about capturing that superb image? I’d love to know how you did it! 🙂

Yup, all me own work. Got other types too. It was great fun doing these but tell the truth, the EMB and Bandit pilot made it easy for me.:)

Did you take them? If so, excellent job. 😎
