Goal of the Photo
While attending the Prairie Airshow in Peoria, Illinois in 2010 I captured many incredible aircraft. This aircraft, a T-28 Trojan, flown by Herb Baker and affectionately known as "Ditto", was put through its paces in a fantastic aerobatic display. I wanted to capture an isolated shot of this training aircraft as it passed through airshow center. Not an easy feat using a manual focus lens.
