"I've been an aviation photojournalist for about 20 years, first for the US Air Force for eight years and now for many aviation magazines. I was the first civilian allowed to fly with a military pilot in this new Navy aircraft, the T-6B trainer. We'd been in the air doing loops and other training events, but I knew my moment had arrived when we were heading towards the training base and the sun was slipping under the horizon. It illuminated the other plane and provided 'golden hour' light. I only had about 3 or 4 minutes to shoot the cockpit, using an off-camera flash. But this image will now be a cover shot for two aviation magazines." ( www.focalplaneimagery.com Nikon D3 with 16mm f/2.8d Fisheye-Nikkor, SB-800 Speedlight flash.
