I'd say the fact you got fairly close to and some decent shots of the F22 is at least some pay off.

This was it's first appearance in the UK, and even then the actual show got cancelled ;)

Great pics Jake....made the most of what you did get :) (and I'm still a little jealous about the raptor :P)

Thanks for all the comments. There were loads more practices on Friday but I didn't take many shots because I was trying to save battery power for the next two days.  :(
