Shutter speed is way too high. 1/250 is max, or the prop stops. #1 rule in avaition photography is, do not under any circumstances stop the prop.

Beautiful. -

Colors look awesome, I like the angle, just needs to be better focused. Maybe little tighter crop to get rid of the fence on top.
-
I don't know about the handling, since I am not a pilot. I did over hear the pilot this year describing that the plane is set up to turn left, and turn left fast. It really does not turn right too well. -
Norman, I guess I was wrong. I like the first one better. It's always a fine line you walk with the shadow/highlight tool.
-
The pan is good, and the rain adds to the image, but the fence you had to shoot over in the foreground detracts from the image a lot. My guess is that you probably did not have much choice in the matter though. -
I really like the angle. I'm surprised that at f/11 there is not more depth of field. I guess the motion is too much to hold the DOF. I may try to get to Indy this year for qualifying. I have never seen a modern F1 car. I just need to hear those V10's scream before all the major rule changes take effect.

Thanks again. I did not have much of a choice here but to zoom in. This was after the final race and hundreds of people were around the plane. -
Thanks, I did not get any where you can see the burners, but I got quite a few with the distortion behind the airplane from the heat. -
It actually has two props. They rotate in opposite directions. All the Shackelton bomber Griffon's have the contra-rotating props. The Griffon is the Merlin's big brother. It is a lot bigger than the standard Merlin, but a lot heavier. They can't compete in the gold class any more, but they have won in the past.

Thanks, I got lucky here, I only wish it was digital. I hate scanning!!!

Yeah it's tight, one of my many slightly mistimed shots. LOL -

Excellent shot. Way to hold up us 10D shooters. Yes you can shoot sports with a 10D, although I think I hear a 20D calling my name.
Only minor nit, maybe you could bring up more detail in the black portion of the paint with the shadow/highlight tool in PS.

Very nice, you almost never see any photos from right behind the starting line anymore. -
This plane is flat out awesome looking, and fast. Qualified at 465.4MPH, and finished 3rd in Sunday's Gold race. -
Your looking at what is probably the future of the sport class at Reno. John and Trisha Sharp's Nemesis NXT. It is powered by a twin turbocharged and intercooled Lycoming 540. They qualified at 324.8MPH not really pushing anything.
Unfortunately they suffered a gear failure and did not race.
I would not be suprised to see it run close to 400MPH next year.

And finally the Sander's family Sea Fury-Argonaut.
