Great photo, I found your portfolio and all the other photos seem to be taken from the ground but I feel this is more on level, is that a trick of the camera?

From what I remember I was using a 100-500 I this was all the way at 500mm maybe the distance of it makes it look like I was level with the plane?

Awesome picture. Love the angle.

Thanks! it was making a pass down the runway when I took it. I also have one of it flying in formation with a F-35.

Nice! I was wondering how you got the shot.

And I hope you post that other pic! Would be two favorites in one frame :)

It's just so random. What about it?

What's the point of any photo on this community?
