The ISS does not have strobes on it.....I don't think its deemed a hazard to aviation.....

I like the crop, but the original is good too...not sure which I prefer either

Looks like a contrail to me too, as mentioned you can see the strobes at regular intervals.

That first one is excellent, the others are pretty good too!

Agree about trying a crop, maybe panoramic, 8x4?

I like the second one most, though the colours seem a bit out. Nice leading lines.

I have a Sigma 24-60 F/2.8 EX DG which I find excellent; if you can find one they're pretty cheap because everyone seems to want the extra 10mm of the Sigma 24-70mm f2.8 IF EX DG HSM.

Thanks, yes, it's a great lens.

Where's my commission? Nice looking shots. How do you manage to get everything so perfectly square, for example in the first shot. I never manage that so I'm assuming some PP technique? Thanks, K.
Hehe, I'll give you first refusal if I ever sell then lens, which is quite unlikely; being an Adaptall lens, even if I changed brands I would keep it.

The trick to getting everything square is the Skew tool in Photoshop (Edit> transform> skew), it's excellent for this purpose.

Some really good shots there, a shame that one of the tornadoes is a bit soft; I love the effect of the exhaust on the rear one. I've never tried shooting an airshow, in fact haven't been to one for years.

Great shots, especially the handball shots.
