How To Catch Interesting Ground Shots at a Busy Airshow


Rollover the image and you'll see I'm presenting these ideas in an A/B format.
For this title page, I wanted to use the Aerocar, (example B), but I never found the right composition that would also carry the title comfortably. To put titles on photos, I look for an interesting shot that also has a fairly solid zone to rest the title on, like example A.

These images were all taken at the Reno Air Races of the entries in the National Aviation Heritage Invitational.
