The Size Of This Stunning Explosion At An Air Show Defies Belief

Yesterday, photographer Mike Miley took his Canon 7D to the Oshkosh Air Show in Wisconsin, and holy crap did he get some good shots. Chief among them is a jaw-dropping shot of two planes dancing around an explosion of Michael Bay-proportions. Holy crap.

I can’t even imagine what the performance must’ve been like in real life, but Miley’s photos help you get pretty close to the action. Some of the highlights from his (altogether excellent) Flickr photostream take you from classic World War II planes to the crazy helicopters that fly upside down. He even captured planes doing some light-drawing in the dark skies above the airfield.
