Frozen at take-off

A fast jet at the moment it leaves the ground, shot from the crowd line with a long lens.

Frozen at take-off

The exposure here is a compromise. Fast enough to freeze the airframe, slow enough to keep some blur in the background so the aircraft looks like it is moving rather than hanging on a wire.

The warm cast is the real light, not a filter: the display was flown in the last half-hour before sunset.
