Looks like the local Bonanza flying club is at it again. Beautiful weather this weekend though...

...so far.

There's one more up there with them. I just couldn't get him in the photo.

Here's some more. I wish they would stay in right traffic. They stayed there for 2 or 3 passes and then went into left traffic. Right traffic puts them right over my house. I had a little bit better background scenery for this one. I took this about an hour after they stopped their last run. My wife griped at me cause I stopped mowing the yard to take some pictures. Roll Eyes

This was the only decent one out of the lot. The shutter speed was to fast. I guess I should just keep it on Auto instead of using the Sport setting. Cheesy

Enjoy...

Same goes for the ISO level as well, hence the grainy appearance. Wink

Thanks! I have a hard time understanding all that stuff. Here's a dumb question, but what exactly is ISO? I have a decent understanding of shutter speed priority and aperture priority. ISO is something I have a hard time finding explanations for. But then again I haven't looked to terribly hard either. Any free websites you can refer me to would be appreciated as well. Thanks again!

I know how to apply it in a practical situation, but I couldn't begin to explain how it works.
Try http://www.photoxels.com/tutorial_iso.html instead. Wink

I think the grainy appearance also has to do with the fact I sharpened the photo in photoshop. This one looks a little better. I wish they would have held a tighter formation. The guy on the left there has a hard time keeping up.

A tighter crop...
