Lots of great shots being posted. @autofocus, I'm most intrigued by that MagMod rigs and had never heard of it until I saw your posts. Many thanks for turning me on to that. Obviously you must recommend it, anything I should know before considering a purchase that I can't find elsewhere?

@AmericanLoonie Magmod is the brand and they offer several versions of their speed light modifiers. Go to Magnetmod.com to see their products. I found them on kickstarter a couple of years ago and was intrigued. All their modifiers attach with magnets meaning you can change from one to another in a matter of seconds. The latest creation is the MagBeam. It has a fresnel lens and does significantly extend the flash output. All the products are durable and a snap to use. Not cheap but the last modifier you'll have to buy. I have 3 basic sets to cover 3 speed lights. Highly recommend if you are a serious speed light user. Here's a link to B&H to check all their products. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1283075-REG/magmod_mammbeamw01_magbeam_wildlife_kit_with.html
I bought my MagBeam kit through kickstarter hence already owning it. It's available for preorder at B&H. Sorry for droning on.
If you are on Facebook they have a page. You'll find lots of photos taken with the products and there is some great inspiration there for speed light use. Wedding photographers are crazy about them.
Didn't I owe you a B-52, @Photobug ? This one made the slowest maneuver I have ever seen at an airshow. It passed us, and then made a seven or eight minute circle to do another fly-by almost identical to the first.
Sports, yes you did owe me a B52. They are some sight on a fly over going so slow. Thanks. Another B 29 from a great vantage point using my wife's camera since I had just sold my D300 and was waiting on the D7100 to be delivered.
