Location
This was taken outside a house that was celebrating a Vietnam veteran who had never been thanked for his service. The airport was near by and I took the photo as the planes flew over.Time
It was about 11:45 in the morning.Lighting
I wasn't sure I could get the airplane but enjoy capturing birds as they fly so took a chance to get a good shot and it worked.Equipment
No tripod just the camera with a Nikon lens that went to 300 mm. Took several pictures and they turned out light but with a few adjustments was able to bring in the color.Inspiration
Wanted to get pictures that would be a reminder to the Vet of the celebration that took place. The Calvary Riders had come out to do an official "Welcome Home" celebration.Editing
I did adjust the balance of the contrast and white balance.In my camera bag
Camera and long distance lens and a short distance lens.Feedback
Use your auto settings or kids so that you can capture the faster moving objects.
