Mirror Pass

Not a photoshop job! This is a maneuver where the two planes fly a pass next to each other. As they approach show center, the near one inverts and they continue (as my friend Marc says, at the speed of heat). When I saw them start this, I panned as well as I could and snapped at full framerate. This is the result. I wanted to catch them as a direct mirror image, but (as you can tell) the near plane was flying slightly behind. Still, I'm very excited about the way it came out!
