Absolutely amazing! Chapeau bas for yor skills, because I like most of the photos from your gallery. The only thing I'd like to know is what kind of equipment did U use to make this photo. Warm greetings from Poland, Michal.

Thanks Michal, I'm glad you like my photography. For this shot I used a Canon Rebel XT and a Canon 100-400 L zoom lens. I have since upgraded my body and am currently using a Canon 40D.

Cheers, John

Great picture John, I believe the phenomenon is called "Transonic" just under the sound barrier. Mach 1 occurs at 768 mph at 68F and pressure at sea level. The vapor is believed to be formed by humidity condensing at the low pressure points around the leading wing tips as the aircraft passes through Mach 1. Judging by your photo, the pilot appears to have both Pratt and Whitney 5000's (air force Designation F-119's) at full afterburner. The F-22 will reach Mach 1 rather quickly in afterburner as it has a 1.08:1 thrust to weight ratio (it will accellerate straight up full of fuel).

This would have been a hard picture to get, very well done!!!!!
