 Some nice shots.  Since I am not into planes, I noticed the people shots
 more. :-) I especially  like the fish eye one of the people on the hill. But 
 the
 man and girl (separate)  are nice too. Oh, okay, and the red plane flying in
 from the left too ( #7, I  think).

Thanks Marnie.

I'm not what you'd call a people photographer, but it's something I
enjoy (when I can force myself to overcome my internal reticence)

I even managed to work myself into that fish eye shot (well, the top
of my head anyway :-)

Cheers,

Dave

Thanks Brian.

I just wish she would have got her hands away from her face. I spent
quite a bit of time observing her (waiting for the right moment of
course) and that was the best I could get before she disappeared in
the crowd.

Cheers,

Dave

The crowd shots are my faves too. It was good fun  I'm inclined to go
again next year.

Thanks for looking.

 Good work Dave. Sprinkle a few bikini shots in next time please :-)

I'm too easily distracted. I can watch a bikini clad lady,  I can
take a photo, but I can't seem to do both at the same time.

I think I need to practice more.

Thanks for looking.

Thanks Brendan.

I originally got the 10-17 for doing panoramas,  I didn't take it out
with me unless that was my intent. Recently however I've been using it
more in different situations  I'm liking the results.

Cheers,

Dave

 Good job with a challenging subject. BTW, I really
