Was thinking the same thing Dave don't worry

Nicely done Eric!

Shadow? well, it was out of frame....yeah, that's it. It was hard enough to darken the sky in the canopy, I would have been ready for a rubber room if I had done a shadow.

I spent several sessions in the studio yesterday with my daughter and her best friend, the best friend with her mom, the mom, and my kids. All in all, about 400 photos. I need to watch the depth of field better as I had a couple of really great shots that had 2 people in it with one in perfect focus and the other soft. Kind of vexing, but a learning experience anyway. Here are some samples.

Nice pics Eric. 3 out of 400, that's a good ratio!

evangilder · Apr 29, 2012

hehe, it is few more than that, these are just a few. I figure I wouldn't bore you guys with pics of my kids.

I really like the first one.

Good shots Eric!

Really nice portraits, Eric!

I don't know how my sister does that type of work (she does weddings, events, indoor/outdoor portraits, etc)...because you have to have the lighting just right, and the f/stop cranked up and all that stuff....plus when it comes to youngsters, you pretty much need to velcro them down to get a good shot :/

evangilder · Apr 29, 2012

You're right, Dave. Photographing one child isn't too bad, but getting 2 in the shot and getting them both with the right face is a challenge. This makes airplanes easy!

evangilder · May 26, 2012

Did a shoot with some Navions today. Fun airplanes with the most room I have had in an airplane in a LONG time. Here are some samples. I am still going through them.

Sharp looking little ships there, they definately look like a blast to fly!

Great shots, Eric!

Thanks Dave. North American made them to keep their engineers busy while waiting on some postwar projects. The design was later sold to Ryan, then to TUSCO. Now a company called Sierra Hotel Aero owns the plans, tooling and rights. As of 2010, they had plans to start making new ones. They are fun to fly, and from a photographers perspective, not bad for photos if you don't mind shooting through the plexiglass.

Good shots Eric!

evangilder · May 27, 2012

Thanks guys. Shooting through Plexiglass gives an additional challenge and a bit more edit time, but if you get the angle right, it's not bad.

ontos · May 27, 2012

Great shots Eric, seems like you did a fantastic job shooting through Plexiglass. That sure does look like fun 8)

evangilder · May 27, 2012

It was Merv. I'll be back up with them tomorrow for a morning flight for Memorial Day. I wanted to get some shots of the lead aircraft, which I was in yesterday.

Aaron Brooks Wolters · May 27, 2012

Excellent shots Eric! I am soooooo envious. I haven't been up in a while I miss it.
