A few from earlier this week

F15 Eagle

The Seafire has some nice prop movement, if you look at the exif date on that image, I would guess you shot that at about 1/125th sec, the Helicopters are slightly easier as they hover plus they are slower and its worth trying somewhere around 1/100th all depending on what lens you've got attached

Just come back from the Mach Loop last night, its superb, these are excellent as well and for me the only improvement would be to have dropped the shutter speed on the prop shots ( Helicopters ) to have some motion in the prop and not to freeze it in mid-air.

Yes, the remote release will give you exposures over and above the 30 seconds most camera's will.

#6 and #7 are superb

Having used many, both my own and others, they are much of a muchness, the only difference between the square or circular ones other than the obvious will be how the catch lights appear in your subjects eyes.

The Square ones will reflect more light as their area will be larger than a circular one.

If your not wishing to spend a lot, some pieces of White / Black card will do as good a job, much cheaper, then cover one side in tin foil and you have a silver reflector, although scrunch it up first otherwise its a big mirror.

Both a good, but the second one for me, superb image.

Also agree with Redbusa99 and Lennybloke, I was shooting the River Tyne in Newcastle earlier this week, hand held cos of so many walkers / joggers on the Millennium Bridge that it was moving toooo much for a long exposure, you could feel the bridge bouncing and see the supporting cables flexing
