FIGHTER JET


This photo was taken at Richmond RAAF Air Show,NSW arround 1992? using a zoom lens that I wish was bigger, Sadly too much grain and not enough detail of the plane ( F1-11?).

Taken using 35mm film on a Minolta camera and a zoom that was not big enough

Yes the aircraft was going very fast.

Took me about 10 minutes to get this photo as his mate seemed peeved I was there and was buzzing around my head.
