I went to the Friday show, November 5th. Skies were high overcast most of the day, and the sun was indeed right straight ahead of the crowd, both of which combined to make difficult light. Saturday was a clear day but I could not go on that day. Coast Guard rescue demo https://live.staticflickr.com/...

I'm wondering about other performers, how much of the schedule is being kept. The web site still lists several civilian performers, no other military aircraft, and still includes the Shockwave jet truck, for which I have, um, serious doubts. :lol: If the July weekend is anything to go by, parking is...

I just now saw the entry for Pensacola NAS in November. That's a show I go to nearly every year, both days.

I've never shot with the D5300, but I had a D5000. Same line, but the 5300 is much newer, with better AF and some other features. The 70-300 you have is plenty of lens, especially on a crop-sensor camera. I upgraded from my D5000 to a D7000 and never looked back. The D5000 missed focus about half th...

I've seen Aeroshell's night show. You will enjoy that!!

Wonderful images of the arrival of the new C-130T, escorted by the Blue Angels jets
