The wing walkers are particularly photogenic as there is the combination of human interest (glamour and adrenalin), lots of smoke to show the movement and, as they fly low, you can get reasonably close up shots. The shot was taken from the main spectator area adjacent to the middle of the runway, where the planes fly by at their lowest point.”
