Since the first time at the MCAS El Toro airshow down here in Southern California have I been interested in aircraft. It wasn't until about 1997 that I dove into the world of aircraft photography.
So, what exactly is Velocicrapper? Well, back when I first signed up here, I was collecting the 'Meanies' series (a series of 'anti-beanie babies' that poked fun at them).
BIO At first it was modern Jets, then, thanks to a movie called Saving Private Ryan, I realized that there was a whole world of amazing aircraft I had been missing: Warbirds. Since then I've been the official photographer and webmaster for the Planes of Fame Museum in Chino, California. I always bring along my camera and snap about 700-1,000 photos each visit. From airshows to monthly events, I always spread the word of preserving these historical beauties. I'm a strong supporter in the preservation of aircraft types for all generations.
I travel to airshows around the west coast shooting photos for various calendars/books/magazines/and my own self.
I'm also an 'unofficial' Disneyland, California photographer. I spend most of my days at Disneyland taking photos of the various characters and cast members throughout the park. I'm the 'official' photographer for the Jedi Training Academy show at the park.
Camera used:
- I use a Canon EOS 5D DSLR, a Canon Rebel XT EOS 350D DSLR, and on occasion a Canon EOS 20D DLSR. Lenses are a Canon 28-135mm USM IS, and 100-400mm IS USM F4.5L lenses.
Favorite Aircraft:
- North American P-51D Mustang
- Boeing F/A-18C Hornet
- Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress
- Lockheed F-22A Raptor

One of my favorite Disney characters!! I have the video of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Well, this is a fine shot, and maybe my eyes deceive me, but I see no graininess. It looks wonderful! Excellent capture. :o)

Grain is part of the bargin when shooting without a flash with the 100-400 at a high ISO...but I find it within tolarable limits. This image is proof, it doesn't bother me a bit..nice saturated colors and sharpness with the 5D! Congrats on the new toy! Aloha!
