While I'm taking pictures I like shooting airplanes !! Didn't think much of this one but the markings were not familiar ... its the Arizona Cardinals Team plane :)
Comments welcome and much appreciated

Cool.......my first thought was Louisville Cardinals but then I doubt they'd have their own plane.....even if Rick Pitino is the basketball coach!!!
Very neat Al. They say that these paint jobs cost tens of thousands of dollars.
..... plus they add a lot of weight and burn more fuel !!!!... do look great :)
Well Mr. Forns...shame on you Sir...the head angle is way off, no eye contact and the bird is flying away from you, also would recommend on adding more canvas on top to give your subject more room to fly into...I do like the flight banking turn...:eek::D:p;)....I love it...a fine looking bird indeed...:cool:
Interesting, I've never seen a plane this cardinally. :)
Gus forgot to mention that the bird is past you. A definite no no! Cool capture Al!
....... will administer twenty lashes myself :)
btw as I was making the image I was thinking the plane was just past me !! :)
Al
If he was past you couldn't you have moved a little to your right......? Maybe a little fill light also to open up the underside from the shadows.
Bill
Hi Bill ... actually I did try the fill flash technique for the under wing shadows but the flashed bounced of a Stealth Bomber :( those are hard to see :eek: ... as far as moving to the right I was having a little knee problems and didn't try :D:):)
sorry Alfred....couldn't resist the flip :)
...... I didn't have to read ... just look at the image !!!! Big Time Love it !!!
Might send them this paint scheme ...they might like it !!! :):):)
Neat shot.
I agree with the stealth image. I had a chance to see the B1 at the EAA show a few years ago and tried to get some images. Black blobs!!! :confused: :eek: :( All the other planes came out real nice!
Big birds are interesting flight objects.
Another No No, thought rarer today, is to shoot prop planes at 1/2500 sec. Stops the props ... planes fall! :o :eek:
Good point Mark !!!! We have an air show late in the year and planing on going !!!
btw at that air show I met Greg Boyington and the Japanese pilot that shot him down ... the had tables set up across each other and we shouting obscenities ... just an act they were good friends.
All has been said but sure wold love to have seen this beauty myself. Great eye to catch this one Alfred !!! Love it.
Whoa Al, now that's a BIG BIRD!!! :D
