Agree, well said. Also, I’m in the same boat with focal lengths 🤣 im loath to look for my zoomer and the body it goes on. I only have fixed lens rangefinders at the ready šŸ™Œ

I love using long lenses to photograph air shows. But your shots are excellent putting things into context. Also totally agree with your final statement.

I used to have a (I think) 70-300mm lens for my Nikon D50 many years ago, and I used to love taking it to the airplane observation park near BWI airport to photograph planes coming and going. Kinda wish I still had it...

But yes! I was very interested in how these planes looked against the backdrop of the city. It was an interesting friction of old and new, for sure.

Not much I can add to your eloquent comments, other than I fully agree with your sentiments. I am really ambivalent about this looming anniversary holiday.
