Shame the nose is missing on the first D&B F111! Still, some interesting catches. 8-) We need walls of fire like that at our shows.
I take it the venue was backlit, or is that just me? Also, you may want to try lower shutter speeds on the props next time.

thanks for the comments guys. And also for the tips Heathaze. No the venue wasnt backlit, it was either 7/8 cloud or only 3/8 cloud, the only lights i remember seeing was the ones in the car park. When i was sitting down, i was facing west, so the sun came from behind and set in front of me. i think my shutter speed went from 1/125 to 1/600 depending on the sun. it was just a bugger. The F-111 came in closer than i had selected but my main objective for that shot was to get the flame and wingtip vortices in the shot. Then when he came around for a nother pass, thats when i got the next shot.
Cheers
