reality…exquisite glimpses of…

Posted on by

PhotoVisited the blog of someone who generously commented on my photo entry for “entrance,” as well as “liked” it. I say “generously” because Mike Hardisty is the real thing…a photographer par excellence! As with Bain Waves I only needed to peruse one post to know that I needed to direct your attention to his blog, Mike Hardisty. Click on http://mikehardisty.wordpress.com/2011/08/10/rhyl-air-show-2011/ and bear witness to some amazing aerial feats. My mouth was agape the entire time. Wish I could’ve been there in person to see all the action for myself. But since I couldn’t be in the UK…Mike Hardisty brought the action to me…

and now…you………hugmamma.

and one more…

  3. Thank you so much for the pingback. My secret is to use a 500mm lens which brings the action really close. It’s a bit heavy so normally I support it with a monopod. I also use burst mode on my camera which lets me track the aircraft across the lens. Once I’ve got the focus right, I press the shutter and the camera takes several shots at a time, which makes it easier to get a good one. A benefit of living in the digital age, I suppose. Liiving by the sea I photograph a lot of birds in flight so that’s ideal practice for the air show.

    • My pleasure! I like sending my readers to blogs deserving of attention, which yours obviously is. I like taking pictures, but realize that photographers like you have the passion to take it to a whole other level of expertise. I’m certain I speak for many in thanking you, and others in your league, for sharing the results of your work.

      hugs for giving us reality…in all its exquisiteness… 🙂
