Always amazed at what they can do! Sweet shot!
When you see them at this angle you can really appreciate that they're just giant engines with enough control surfaces to make them flyable. Their power-to-weight ratio is incredible. Excellent shot, Sig, perfect timing and shutter speed.
what a great shot sig even at that focal length .sharp and detailed .excellent capture mate :o) mick
Wow - this is a great shot Sig. I know how difficult it is to try and get these babies in focus flying at such high speed. Great work! xx

Awesome and timely capture, Siegfried, of your courageous Thunderbird pilots. Our Red Arrows display are the same. I've seen one documentary about the latter, and I have to conclude, that they are very, very good about what they do, but down here on Earth they would be classified insane and given a 72 hour assessment within a mental hospital. They would, no doubt, walk out with certificates to prove just how sane they were, even if to the ordinary bloke in the street, they are stark, staring mad!! ;o) Their skills are amazing, but I think I would need a sick bag, and I don't think I could take many Gs, unfortunately. Come to think of it, my double vision would just make it doubly disorienting. Ewan McGregor, actor ( young Ben Kenobi ) from Star Wars I-III, has a brother in the RAF, and he went up with him for some authorized aerobatics on camera in a BBC documentary a couple of years ago. The pilots of any forces display team definitely deserve all their pay, and more. Warm regards, on a freezing Spring night, John.
Wonderful shot. Have always admired the Thunderbirds and Snowbirds. Am truely amazed at their skill. And impressed with your skill capturing this... I have never been able to get a decent shot of them. When I was a little girl I dreamed of being a jet pilot.. poor vision made that impossible though.
