Hey Guys:

These are 137 more Reno pictures. Different than the last batch, mostly Unlimiteds, T-6s but all kinds.......... I did have the opportunity to shoot with Tim Adams and Rich Kolosa (both of whom are great guys). Rich was out there one morning at 6 AM shooting before the sun came up... What dedication....... Tim was shooting with the 500mm a lot and carrying that beast around all day was a job. Me... I left my 500mm in the car until Sunday and shot it some then...... Valerie thanks for the opportunity...

Pics are zipped with JZip which you can get at www.JZip.Com, they should unzip with ANY decompression program.........

Download link is good for 2 weeks or 500 downloads......

As usual, if you like them, PLEASE post something to bump this message up so others can easily see it. Should you have problems, FEEL FREE to drop me an email or PM........

Enjoy them guys

Mark H

Nice job, shutter speeds are a little high, but even I went up from my normal 1/250 to 1/320 for some stuff.

Exceptonal observation Tim.... I usually shoot flying at 1/320 or so, a lot I did at 1/500th and some at 1/640th... I figured they were running hard and engines really turning up, I could shoot faster... Of course I had a REALLY low reject rate on the pylon shots... I should have brought the Kenyon Gyro with me for those, but then I figured I wouldn't need it and I had enough stuff to carry and I left it back at home in TN.....

I can say I did learn a few things there. I know I got a few non airplane shots that should make the program next time....
