nice shots - especially as I would guess that you did it just using the 70-200mm? It's amazing how close you can get with it.

yes it was just with my sigma 2.8 ex 70-200, #1 and #2 are original sizes, easy to capture those biplanes as they go very close, the rest are tightish crops

i was at the end of the pier and at one point the f16 came past so close even at 70mm i couldn't fit the whole lot in! but missed the shot as I had the fairground behind me so didn't see it coming
