Machine Birds
They roar to their heart’s content. They swallow loads of oil.
They spit thick fumes. They go in groups. Some go alone.
They fly at supersonic speeds… They are machine birds.


All shot @ Al Ain Aerobatic show 2011.
Linking with this week’s Sunday Stills challenge.

Wonderful images..

Great catch on the first one. I hadn’t thought of this take on the challenge, then again, any planes that flew over were obscured by the clouds.
Thank you for this comment : )

Hi Firasz – These are awesome shots! It is difficult to catch flying aircraft and keep them in total focus but you have done the business! The composition and colour just add to the overall effect!
Cheers

You are absolutely right, John.
They were some quick shots and I liked them.
Great idea (it never crossed my mind) and photos! I like the second shot best. Great exhaust & unique aircraft, ‘er bird!
