This is an F-86 Saber which was performing at an airshow I went to in November. This is my Dad's favorite jet and I think he was more excited about this than watching the Blue Angels perform.

I like how the bright colours of the jet stand out from the less saturated background.

Great action shot with the saber in a bank. If this is a model it's a darn good reproduction. I like the colors of the foliage behind the colors of the jet.

Can't get much clearer than this, and applaud getting it right, considering the speed!

Nice capture! No detail lost in the plane at all! I might crop off just a little on the bottom to get the fence line out of the shot.

Wow! This has got to be one of the better plane shots I've seen. I really like how it is not just a shot of a plane going across a dull featureless sky. The trees and blur give a strong context, and a good feel of motion, and of being 'there'. Detail in the plane is very good. It stands out well. Nice work, very nice!

The F-86 is one of my favorite planes. Great shot and sense of speed.

Amazing stopped action. Great work!

The focus on the aircraft is stunning but the crop does not do the shot any justice. There is way too much blured background that detracts the eye away from the subject. A tighter crop would have got a higher vote from me (6)
