Great shots.. sort of disproves that oft stated comment here that photos are fast moving objects can't be captured in focus on a Pentax so me must go to where the grass is greener.
I photographed the red arrows that day from my back garden (there's one taken for the monthly comp.)

For me they don't even have to be moving!I'm not going to mention how many I deleted!!!!
I must say the 150-450 has done well, I'm pretty sure you could recognise the RA pilot if you knew them. Surprised he didn't give you a wave!

I like the first one and the sideways Hurricane. The last is pretty spectacular too.
A few seem to suffer from a very gray sky. I know we cannot control the weather, but perhaps over exposing them a bit might have brightened the background a little

Thanks Peter.
Maybe I need to have a look at the white balance, it was blue sky most of the time.

The fliers had some technical issues as the Hurricane was a last minute stand in for a Spitfire and I could only count 8 of the Reds. Which made some of the formations a little odd!
All taken with a K-1 and 150-450.
Any comments and criticism welcome.
