  • Toronto Airshow Pics

    #1
    Today I was fortunate enough to see the Airshow today, it was a good chance to get some shots in and try this out for the first time. However, I quickly found that the Zoom lens i purchased, although good for the zoo, flowers and stuff like that, this lens had some trouble with high speed things. For the money it's an all around good lens, but i found out today, for these types of shots, it would be nice to have a lens with IS(image stabilization) and a faster focusing ability. I was able to get some decent shots of the bigger and slower planes, but the jets, the f-16's and those alike were hard to get quality photos out of this lens. Most of the pics needed some post production.

    Anyway it was still fun and a great learning experience.

    The ones i'll be posting are the "Snow Birds", they were the feature of the day. I have alot to share, but i'll start with these I'm really tired!

              these are great!...despite the limitations of your lens, you pic'd up great pilot and cockpit detail, and i like the reflections of the sun on the aircraft...good job!

                  Limited by the lens my butt! Those shots rock, man!!

                  I especially love that one of the three really close together. They must have been damn close together.

                  I also love the detail you got of the guy with the flag hanging out the cockpit and the paint works on some of the planes.

                  Looks like you had a beautiful day too. Nice job, Tyger!!

                        Can't wait to see them. It rocks that the sky was so clear for you. Makes the planes so vivid!!

                          Wow! Lovely shots Tyger!! You're lens and more importantly you have done well! Really, really amazing shots man. On some of the shots it almost looks like you were on the same level, like shooting from another plane.

                          Wonderful shooting.

                            I think you've chosen an incredibly difficult subject for this style of illustration, for a beginner. Something that could more easily be posterized and broken down into 3 or 4 values would be a good...

                            Clients pay you to come up with ideas. They can select a designer based on their portfolio. That's what a portfolio is for. But shopping around for custom work and paying only if they use it is wrong....

                            The job I have now, I was told over 400 people had applied for it. There's a ton of competition out there. If you're passionate about it and never stop studying it, you can be good. Best way to get ahead...

                            Oh yes, left-hand binding. I'd never do it along the top. Awkward.

                            A flexible set-up for your portfolio will be more efficient in the long-term IMO. You will be able to customize your portfolio pieces to the sector for which you are applying.

                            I would say landscape portfolios are pretty common. +1 for binding on the left-hand versus the top.
