watch your six! - squirl033 - Mar 10, 2012

if you were an allied pilot in WWII, this is NOT what you wanted to see in your rear-view mirror!! :o this is a Messerschmitt Bf109E-3 belonging to Paul Allen's Flying Heritage Collection in Everett, WA...

Nice. Were you in a plane for this or this a LONG telephoto shot?

thanks, guys! this is a telephoto shot taken with my 40D and 100-400 lens @ 400mm. it's a bit of a crop, of course - the plane was probably a quarter-mile away, but closing at around 250 mph...
