    WOW! What a night. Fred thank you and the museum staff for putting this together. I can't believe how fast the time went by. I have to admit I was both thrilled and nervous.

    It was great meeting everybody and putting names to faces. What a wonderful group of gentlemen.

    I have so many shots to go through from the week & weekend but here is ones I that I liked from last night.



    Fred thanks again, it was a pleasure to finally meet you in person.

    As I said earlier, this was an amazing experience. Of everyone there, I was certainly at the bottom in terms photo talent. My favorite plane of the night was the A10.

    Here are some of mine...please critique! I'd like to learn how I can improve!

    Great shots, Phil.

    What immediately came to mind for the first and fourth picture in your series was to adjust the white balance. Sodium lamps' orange hue can really throw colors off.

    I hope you don't mind me editing your photos, but I selectively adjusted the white balance in just the A-10 itself and set the white point in the teeth or eyes of the nose art. I missed the leading edge of the cockpit window.

    Nice stuff guys.. Hopefully I will get to go thru the 5000 images (my wife was shooting too) from the event in few days.

    Think I got some nice treetop shots of them coming back to FRG after the show. The departure was nice, first time I have been at the terminal when they left. # 2 needed a jumpstart :)

    Not sure I would totally correct for the lights.. personal preference I guess.

    Please shooting with you.

    I am still going through the 3168 shots from the weekend. But, I wanted to put up some of mine from Saturday evening which aren't up already. Fred, a big thank you to you and the American Airpower Museum for making this night possible. The rain tried to stop it, but that only made the night more interesting.

    Why do I always look angry in pictures people take of me? :)

    Well, for starters.... you were carrying like 80lbs in glass... on top of that you have those sh!tty Canon straps that make your camera feel like 50 lbs without a lens and make your neck sore after 6min flat. Also you do not have a cool backwards cap like Phil, the sun was reflecting off of my awesome $180 dollar lens and I think you just dropped your bag on your foot.

    Seriously, when the hell are you going to get rid of those neck breaking horrible canon straps???
