Okay, so I've just walked through the door after the Air Show at Avalon, on the outskirts of Melbourne. These two shots are of the F/A-18 Hornet, and I just tried taking them from an unusual angle, rather than side-on. In the first frame, I've focused on the tip of the nose cone, with the open canopy in soft focus. And in the second frame, I've reversed it, with the canopy in sharp focus and the nose in soft focus. Does it work for you?
