About As promised, I went to get some more pictures of the Freedom Day and Presidential Inauguration Ceremony flypast. I waited at the top of a hill with a view of the Union Buildings but was unaware of the change in flight plan until the airliners were almost over my head. They had completely reversed the path they took in practice on Sunday. I didn't have the best position for this "suprise attack" and only managed to get a few shots in between the trees before they headed off in the distance. Total time from first (main) pic to last was 20 seconds. Not the greatest quality photos due to very bright sunlight and haze. Maybe I'll try again in 5 year's time.

nice formation shots,Robert
About my camera......My camera was in repair and somehow they lost it,or it was stolen.anyhow,they are giving me a new camera now,and i will get it next monday,that is canon eos 300D(Rebel) with Kitlens 18-55mm zoom.
Hopefully I have more luck this time.
I purchased canon lens 50mm 1.8,this is a very good affordable lens and should be better than the kitlens.
zenith 300mm with adapter,I can only use manualy,but its a great lens(1Kg).These days a lens like that would cost 5000 Dollar or even more.So its my baby.I will post a picture of the lens when I have my camera.
300mm means about 500mm lens on this camera with factor 1.6
