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!
Camera, lens and other equipment used Sony a9II, Sony 600mm f4, Gitzo Tripod, Wimberley gimbal Exposure data (shutter speed, aperture, ISO) f 7.1, SS 1/3200, ISO 1000 Every Summer a nearby small airport in Bealeton Virginia sponsors a Flying Circus airshow. The highlight event is a Wing-walker. As the Biplane makes several passes over the airfield, the daredevil will stay on the top wing as the plane rolls, he will hang from the struts and then hang off the lower wing while waving to the crowd. I canât imagine why anyone would do this, but it sure makes for a fun photo-op.
