About the Image(s)

This is from the 2023 Homestead Air Show, held at Homestead Air Reserve Base, about an hour south of Miami. The U S Air Force flight demonstration team 'The Thunderbirds' always grabs air show center stage. To be fair, of course, the Navy's equivalent team, 'The Blue Angels,' also is the big draw at other shows. This particular image captures a five plane break (either a 'low bomb burst' or a 'delta burst') heading straight for the crowd. I was using my Nikon D500 with 200-500 mm zoom, probably set at 1/200 sec. with moderate ISO setting. As is usually the case I start out in Camera Raw for color balance, contrast, vibrance, etc, then open into Photoshop for further adjustments, then finishing off with On1 FX 8 for dynamic balance.
