Going to love trawling through the entries of this one being AAC myself. Especially with some of my favourite images coming from last years AH fireball demo, the AH at Northolt Nightshoot, and the recent Ogwen Valley shots.

A recent favourite of mine from Kirkcudbright in some sporting conditions. Taken 27th (I believe) Jan '15
