Here are some pics I took on sat. They looked better than this before I uploaded them. When they were uploaded to the site some went to mush.

Yes, fotopic have a sneaky way of compressing your images even further - but you're penalised for the original file sizes off your 250Mb limit. But I guess free's free...

I like the "Veteran Mustang" one of my favourite bird. It's around AU$1Mil.
Expensive toy once again.

All of the airshow shots are great! Wonderful subject to photograph. Next time you guys photograph helicopters try and get a couple where the rotor is a blurred disk. You need to use a slow shutterspeed, about 1/60 or even 1/30 but the results can be spectacular. Great subject for the VR lenses.
