I've started hitting the local, small AP to work on my technique -- panning particularly. It's a cool little airport -- very ecclectic! I saw these in the span of an hour yesterday. (hopefully this is indeed the proper place to post these)

I've heard the 2-Niner Diner is supposed to be good! Fun AP to practice at, too..

Some more from today -- in the midst of a light rain...

Turns out these biplanes were coming in for a WACO fly-in, which coincided with Petaluma's monthly display day.... I was treated to full access at the airport on Saturday for some really fantastic displays, flying, and all around good people. I'd not shot biplanes or much GA stuff before, and I had a blast. Conditions were kind of poor on Saturday for the first half -- grey overcast and light drizzle around the field, but I did my best. All sorts of old Pipers, Stearmans, Wacos, varioius turbo-prop float planes, and types I could not ID yet -- plus some military visitors (Texans) and a DC-3 fly over. Went back on Sunday and got to plant myself in the seat of a Stearman for a taxi ride -- was quite a thrill! (can only imagine if we'd left the ground!) And got some great access to shoot a couple of the local biplanes... pics to come.  I was close enough to everything to be able to use my 18-200VR lens, which may not be the best tool for the job but it's sharper than my Sigma 300 at least. What a weekend!  Grin

((Marinephoto -- if you are asking me, thanks btw, most of those shots were in SP mode at 1/200 or lower and F8-F16, if you need more specific data for any just specify and I'll provide))
