PARIS AIR SHOW — At events like the Paris Air Show, the great challenge when trying to capture the mood is that it is functionally impossible to get a good photo of the performances in the skies with a normal camera. Luckily, Breaking Defense’s Polish contributor, Bartosz Głowacki, was on hand at Le Bourget this week.

Bart is not just one of Poland’s most esteemed defense journalists, but a talented photographer, so we asked him to turn his camera to the skies during this week’s aerial exhibitions. We think you’ll agree they came out great.
