Took these at Sun N Fun in 2019.
If you look closely, only the lead is looking forward. All 3 other pilots are looking at the wing, or fuselage, closest to them.
Some serious trust, skill, and nerves of steel.

Technically perfect, perfect timing and perfect framing.
This kind of photography is demanding and you've done a great job of capturing a moment in time and the tension of the moment.
Blown away am I . . .
edit to add: This is not a safe profession. Looks good an polished but like cheer leading it can hurt you real bad and real fast.
