Default Ferrara AirFest 2008

At the end of September, is held like every year, in the beautiful city of Ferrara (the same of 1000 Miglia crossing), which is 40 km far from my house, a festival dedicated to the air
Every year I always going to follow the flight of Balloons, the main attraction of the event. But this year has also played a show with aerobatic aeroplanes that I decided to go and see
I'm not an expert in this kind of shows as of aeroplanes in general, but the one thing I can say is that it was damned great! I enjoyed it a lot!
I took with me the professional tripod and the 300mm zoom lens. One thing is certain, for these events the objectives are never long enough!
The performances of aeroplanes were magnificent, with incredible acrobatics and even a short distance from the ground and spectators
Impressive numbers of people all around the airport, over 35.000!!
The most exciting part was at the end of event with the performance of italian acrobatic aircrafts "Frecce tricolori". An exciting developments with perfect geometric and choreographic closure of colorful trails. Wonderful! Great! Awesome!!

More pics in high resolution and two different size are avaiable on my website: www.italiansupercar.net
