I was out shooting birds in a place called Alvor salt marches (Portugal) and it was slow. I noticed planes taking off and landing. I went back to the highway and worked my way to the airport. They were taking sky drivers up. At the marsh I heard this wine and I thought it might be fighter jets. At the airport I heard it again and looked up. This time I could see them. It was the chutes in the wind. They land back at the airport. I was in the wrong spot for them but I set myself up for the plane landing. I was using s slow shutter speed (1/125) for prop blur but was not ready for the people.

I’m going back and now I know where to stand for the parachuters so I’ll do both them and the plane again. I managed one shot but had to crop it a lot so it’s not that great. A bit of a double header. The R6II has a 24mp sensor but it can hold its own. Not a very usable but an example. I know I was little concerned with 24. My sweet spot was 30mp with my R.

Minimum post processing. Both camera and "lens" still surprise me.
