Patrice, That is an excellent look at an airshow. You did very well for a first time shooting such a thing. I particularly liked the formations with smoke trails. You do some different maneuvers than I have seen before. The blue jets with the yellow markings are great. I especially like the way the yellow crosses show from the bottom. They are more spectacular than our Navy's all dark blue - Blue Angels. Regards, Bob S.
