Out Glassed (9316)

Don't believe it when someone tells you that "size doesn't matter!" You bet it does and this photographer is proof that bringing out the big guns at an airshow is sometimes essential. My Nikon 70-300 f/4.5-5.6 VR zoom is feeling sorta inadequate right about now.

 

Photographed at the 27th Annual World War II Weekend at the Mid Atlantic Air Museum.

 

Shutterbug Tip: This is a good example of using a long lens up close, with a (relatively) large aperture and a distant background to blur everything else out and allow the eye to focus only on the subject; great Image Isolation and Shallow Depth of Field.
