Just spent a few relaxing days in the Lake District near Keswick. Here are a few pictures I took in the last few days. All shot with a Canon R7 and either a Sigma 150-600mm (C) or the 18-150mm kit lens. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54042849165_e602169a33_b.jpg 20241001_206 by Ian Cramman , on...

Hi Everyone, Having never used studio lighting in anger, I arranged a session in the studio with a local photographer. Here are some of the photos that I managed to take during the session. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53299889930_bc0eef4c73_b.jpg 20231029_009-Edit by Ian Cramman , on Flickr ...

Hi Everyone, It's September and the Blackpool Illuminations are back in full colour. Couldn't resist a small trip (10 miles) to see the Illuminations and try out my new camera as I've just upgraded from my trusty Canon 7D MkII to a Canon R7. As it was also a evening with very little wind I thought i...

Cracking stuff and an usual subject. I have often thought of trying it myself but have been put off by all the flying restrictions, byelaws etc one has to follow/be aware of. Hi Neptune-8, It's not that bad most of it is fairly common sense. Where I live I'm right next to BAE Systems Warton and clo...

Hi Whoppa722002, Just looked at the pictures from RAF Cosford and J-3080 did not take part in the display. So far I have been able to get the following: J-3081 J-3083 J-3084 J-3085 J-3090 J-3091 These can be all seen on the picture below. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53083286046_f9aeee4438_b....

Thanks for that Ian, you don't happen to know the registrations of the flying F-5's at the show do you?.

Cheers.

I'll have a look at the rest of my pictures and see how many I can find.

Some great shots there, just a quick question could anyone confirm that one of the Swiss F-5's has a registration reading J-3080?

Thanks..

Yeah, that is correct. J-3080 is one of the F5s. I think it's the jet that had it's nose cone knocked off the week after Cosford.

Cheers,

A little note for the OP. The first part of the set from Falcons to u/s of the PR. Spit' is duplicated. On the subject of light & heat I would also add content! :roll: Your shots are the best you could have captured in that location! That's why I used to visit the Cricket Club on show-day & don't g...

Great photos. Yes, the heat was unbelievable and my photos suffered a bit from it. Hi Dave, The heat was punishing, I was quite glad to get into the car and put the air con on. The amount of pictures I'm deleting is staggering and some of them are not my fault. :P No idea what the serial of the NH9...

Lovely images in what was awful light for photography. I've been without a lens for aviation photography for a few years now and was scanning all sorts of websites to get one in time for Cosford - then I remembered where the sun usually is and decided I didn't need to worry my bank manager that wee...

Challenging wasn't it?

Hi Rob,

Was it ever. I'm still going through the majority of my pictures and I've got rid of so many that lack contrast or are just ruined cos of the heat.

Brilliant set, great colours. I'd love a drone but terrified it would just fly off never to return :Wow: Cheers Pune Hi Pune, Thanks. Get one they are really good and I've flown mine quite a bit and never had anytime when I thought it would fly away. Cheers, Ian C Thanks Ian, I may well take the pl...
