The Rocky Mountain Renegades at 2019 Pikes Peak Regional Airshow

Photos of Rocky Mountain Renegades Airshow Team at 2019 Pikes Peak Regional Airshow. These photographs were taken at the Pikes Peak Regional Airshow in Colorado Springs. The Rocky Mountain Renegades are a group of professional pilots and aviation enthusiasts from along the Front Range of Colorado, flying experimental aircraft that most members built themselves.

The team is made up of a combination of United States Air Force, Navy and civilian pilots, all of whom work for or are retired from major airlines, but have previous experience flying front line military fighters, attack helicopters, and competitive aerobatic aircraft. These images were taken on September 21, 2019. You can learm more about The Rocky Mountain Renegades Airshow Team by clicking here.

Photographs of The Rocky Mountain Renegades Airshow Team

The following camera gear was used in the Aviation Photography of the Airshow Team at the Pikes Peak Regional Airshow in Colorado Springs, Colorado:

• a Nikon D850 with the Nikon MB-D18 Multi Battery Power Pack,
• F-Stop Gear Aloe Green Tilopa 50L Back Pack (with large Pro ICU),
• a Really Right Stuff TVC 34L tripod,
• the Movo GH800 Carbon Fiber Professional Gimbal Tripod Head with Arca-Swiss Quick-Release Plate,
• with a Really Right Stuff BH-50 LR Ballhead,
• and an AF-S NIKKOR 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR lens with a Really Right Stuff Tripod foot.

The Airshow Team formation flying photos were all taken with a Gimbal and tripod set up using the 200-500mm lens. The D850 exposures for the images average between 1/80 and 1/640 of a second at f/7.1 and f/8.0. The native ISO of settings of 64 was used on the Nikon D850 and all images captured as RAW files. We also used Adobe Lightroom Classic CC to process all of these images. Since this was a sunny blue sky day with very few clouds, we used Adobe Photoshop’s new new sky replacement feature to add clouds in to the header photo on this page.
