Sunday at Duxford
Sunday at Duxford
Morning all,
A selection of images from Sunday at the Duxford Air Festival. Not the strongest show I've ever attended, with a bit too much filler for my liking, but what was good was largely very good, Rafale and Goaty in the Fury especially, just a shame the former appeared so early in the program when the light was at it's worst. Good to see ARCo's new Spitfire PR XI make an appearance before and after teh show too, a very welcome bonus. Positioned myself down the M11 end where there were plenty of topside opportunities, so not the worst day with the camera either....

Re: Sunday at Duxford
Very nice , looks like a great day
Re: Sunday at Duxford
Very nice topsides there. Surely never have so many Furies featured in a display before.
Re: Sunday at Duxford
Incredible set! Out of interest what camera/lens set up were you using on these?

Re: Sunday at Duxford
Very nice photos. F.3. I was there Thursday and Friday, and us oldies reckoned that there were once five Furies at Duxford for a display, but it was some years ago, and no-one could remember the year.
Re: Sunday at Duxford
Thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated. I'm sure I've seen three Furies attend a Flying Legends show in the recent past, not sure which year though. Couldn't say if any more than that have appeared together though...
Cheers,
Shaun
Thanks, Canon 7D Mk II and 100-400L Mk II used throughout on these.
Cheers,
Shaun
