King Air 350

This was bizarre… As I left the airfield on the thursday evening in the bus, we saw this caribou going full speed across the paddack, kicking up lost of dust… We could see where he was going, but it was quite funny to see.

And still they come… Just finished editing up the photos I took on the first public day of the airshow… Only 2 more days to go.

Tell me if your bored of these photos yet… I will stop posting them. I’m sure they are far more interesting to me than anyone else!

Great shots!
The only critique is that some of the shots could be cropped a bit tighter. For instace the little bi-plane is lost in the shot and the two helicopters are to far over to the right. Squareing up the shot just makes it a bit easier on the eye and more impressive. Just think what a shot the F-15 taking off will be without the forground.
Also the bird shot is to dark (is it a Kite?)

Hope this helps
