Post by pikey01 » Sun Dec 11, 2011 6:45 pm

Wasnt going to post these on here, due to the rubbish quality (iso 3200, f2.8, 200th a second - yes it was that dark) but a couple of people have asked me too :blush:

Given the debate on if it was 'special' or not, I asked the mods to remove my post until after it had gone ;)

If that's "rubbish" quality you can post anything you want here.... good shots, despite the weather and light... you've done pretty good and for ISO 3200 they are really good!
Great catch,
cheers

Good stuff considering the light issues.
The Israeli's can lick Pikeys arse. If they choose to land at an airfield in the UK which harbours lots of photographers then that is their problem. No one can stop anyone posting a picture of a C130 on any forum.
You all post pics of U2s landing at Fairford so why the "no go" on a C130?

Thanks for posting. Brilliant shot in conditions. When I've watched something 'trail' across Europe as a blip on PP its nice to see the real thing.
Thanks again :thumb: (The shades keep my disguise)

Really like the first one. Something different from the normal views. The lights just make the picture stand out

Just to state the views of RichC are not my own :ninja: :lol: To be fair Rich, they probably werent expecting anyone to be stupid enough to be there in that light.

Thanks for all the kind comments :thumb:
