A Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker of the United States Air Force captured at the Scottish International Air Show in Ayr, Scotland.

Previously unpublished shot captured in September 2017.
Here the KC-135 on a low speed flyby with it's refuelling tail boom extended. The sharpness of the EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM lens was completely lost with the addition of the 2x III Extender that I bought. I was bitterly disappointed with the Extender and I am not sure it should have created such soft images. Next air show I will be hiring one of those otherwise unaffordable super telephoto lenses. Hope you like this shot though. Stay safe everyone.
