Fort Wayne Airshow 2022

in , , ,

What a day and my first airshow of the year for me. It certainly was not disappointing. This was my first time attending this show and will not be my last. Very impressed with the Pilots that participated in this show. Of course, the highlight was the Thunder Birds.

Being my first show, I had some rust in the beginning. Of course, when I say rust, I am talking about Panning with the planes. But, as the day went on, I was getting in my groove and got this shot of the P-51 Mustang. I love these oldies and am glad we have them still flying.

Now that panning was in control; it was time to have fun and enjoy what these pilots would give me. Here are some more pictures of the 2022 Fort Wayne Airport; more will be coming. I just got back and downloaded them to my computer and grabbed a few of my favorites today.

The first one is down, and more to come. I can’t wait for the big one in Oshkosh.

Merry Christmas to the Greatest Generation

They call this one the Greatest Generation, and I understand why. I was so fortunate to talk with some of these heroes from the ’40s and ask questions about the war. The older I got, the more I wanted to understand. The big lesson they did not feel that they were owed. Responsibility, Work Ethics, Faith and Humility They love America and what it stands for. Freedom. Merry Christmas to the Greatest Generation.

Aviation Photography

in , , ,

For many years, I have been going to EAA in Oshkosh, WI. Facts, my love for planes started back when I was working on the ambulance. Yes, you heard it right. You see, we're the crew for the flight line, and I learned a lot about planes and the pilots threw their story's from their wives. This brings me to today. Once again, I went to EAA, this time as a photographer.

While this was not my first time taking pictures of these incredible machines, it was my first time after many hours of practicing new technics.

I also wanted to be creative when it came to aviation. Yes, get the shot everyone likes to see. But also get the image that many people did not think of, like the wheels of a 747.

One thing over the years that have not change is my love for planes and aviation. At the airports, some people like looking at people. I look at planes after planes taking off. I have been to many museums not just once but return many times. With all of this, I decided that I want to make Aviation part of my photography portfolio. I enjoy aviation. If I had to make my career over again, I would like to be a pilot. While I am getting older, I will do the next best. Document Aviation. Next show Cleveland.
