[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
When the "Snow birds" roared over the roofs of our house today, I initially got scared and regretted that my AA 130 mm gun is lost somewhere under the bed. But it happened to be the "Snow birds" - Canadian ace pilot group, demonstrating their peaceful supremacy in the air:)
So I grabbed XT with Tamron 17-50 on it and tried to capture. Unfortunately Tamron is a bit short for this type of action - so this is a crop.
Cropped
Exp +2 and -2
HDR
Sharpened and cleaned the noise. Also sharpened the "birds".

Hi Michael

A superb decisive moment, snapped at just the right moment, to allow the jets 'room' to move into, at right. Tfs!

This looks good Michael. The planes are so close to the buildings, and you have done a good job on them all.
Bravo!
Janice
