Plane & Pilot proudly announces the finalists for this year’s Plane & Pilot Your Flying World Photo Contest. Finalists were selected from among hundreds of entries, and while there wasn’t a bad shot in the bunch, these images shone through.
And as usual, there was a wide range of subject matter in this year’s battle of the airborne lenses, with everything from bucolic panoramas of natural beauty to studies of the finer details of the flying machines we love so much.
Enjoy these outstanding submissions, but be sure to tune in next week when we announce the winners of this year’s Plane & Pilot Your Flying World Photo Contest!
This image was taken at the Titusville Airshow in Florida on March 12, 2016. This airshow takes place every year and is attended by many including both aircraft and photography enthusiasts. The flight was the last flight of the show and was in the âhonor flightâ formation honoring all the airmen past and present and their incredible machines that protect and keep our country strong. As the aircraft fly over the audience on the ground, they dip their wings in a âbeauty shot,â enabling the perspective of being at or above the aircraft in the air. The image was taken at 4:19 in the afternoon in full sunlight and a relatively cloudless sky.
