I have to say, that this is an excellent image of a F-15E Strike Eagle from Seymour Johnson AFB, North Carolina, or as we call it, Stinky J. The only drawback that I noticed right off the bat is since you reveresed the direction of the plane the SJ on the tail doesn't look right. Being in the AF, I saw that and had to look twice to figure out that the SJ was reversed in order to realize the plane belonged to Stinky J. Still this is a phenominal in flight capture of this deadly machine of war. I love the afterburner effect off the tail fo the plane and the sense of motion is second to none!
I can tell you as a kid I always enjoyed the Miramar Air Show. In 14 and a half years of being in the Air Force, I have yet to see an air show that was as top notch as the Miramar show was. Of course it is a shame that they had to move Fightertown USA from Miramar Naval Air Station to Fallon, Nv, but life goes on. The crying shame of it all was when it went from being Miramar NAS to Miramar MCAS. Soemthing about that just isn't right.

Quite brutal, a lot of grain action at the front of the plant, but otherwise 6. |

Ooo. Can't help wonder about the composition 'adjusted' somehow to give this a little extra - maybe even a bold horizontal type crop, but your call. Nice capture. |

Nice feeling of movement in the smoke. A little washed out, but great capture. |
