Evan's photography phun

[evangilder]

Thanks guys. I took 715 pictures on Monday afternoon and am in the process of editting them for my website. I have gotten away completely from the automatic settings on the camera to get better control of the shots. Now that I have a better handle on it, I get the prop blur and focus where I want it.

That sounds cool. Keep on shutting!

 

[Gnomey]

Good stuff Eric! I like that one of the Seafury and the P-40.

 

[evangilder]

Thanks Gnomey. When I saw that coming, I HAD to shoot that. It is unusual to see that formation. 8)

Some mighty fine shots in there, and a good Fokker link too! All I can say is...Wow.

 

[evangilder]

Thanks, NS. Here are a few more from monday. These are the edits I am working on for my website.

 

[Pisis]

Great shots, the last one is the best!

 

[evangilder]

Thanks. The last one was screaming to be black and white! I had the perfect lighting for that shot. Sometimes, the sun can be in just the right place.

 

[Gnomey]

Yeah the last one is good, I also like the first one. Good shots Eric!

I actually really love the Bearcat, Hellcat, Warhawk and Seafury on the tarmac shot.... Could make a great siggy.... Awesome pics Eric, as always...

 

[pbfoot]

excellent like the start on f8f and the Dauntless

 

[evangilder]

Cheers everyone! The section for QB-36 has just opened on my website. Check it out at: http://www.vg-photo.com/airshow/qb36/qb36.html

Enjoy!

 

[Nonskimmer]

Nice!

 

[cheddar cheese]

Excellent shots once again Eric, I love the Bearcat start-up...

 

[evangilder]

Cheers. My only complaint with the Beacat startup is that some sorry SOB put his elbow right into my shot.

 

[Gnomey]

Yeah, you could try and edit it out in photoshop though...

 

[evangilder]

I probably will. I am in the process right now of a major site redesign. It's become cumbersome and cluttered. It wasn't so bad when it was small with a couple of hundred pictures, but now I have lost count of the number of pictures and i see a need to standardize. Ugh, it's a huge project that I have been splitting into small pieces so it doesn't get so overwhelming.

 

[evangilder]

Well, that wasn't so bad after all. All of the pages are now in standardized color and them with the exception of the main page, which I am taking my time with because I really want it to "pop". I have also been doing calendar layouts for the 2007 calendars. I have a bunch in the works and 4 already done. I posted an 18 month calendar from the Riverside show a while back. This month, so far, I added a 12 month from the Silver Wings wingwalking shoot, the Fokker DR.1 and the P-51 Mustang. There are more to come, including a Corsair calendar that was a special request. Here are the calendar previews for the latest. The link for these is at:

Enjoy and feedback is welcome.

Wow I am very impressed.

You gotta give it to that woman for hanging all over that biplane in flight. Man, that is really amazing. Takes a lot to do it.
