Re: HHA Hawker Hunter ZZ190 incident at RAF Leeming?

Thinking back to the days of Lightnings taking the barrier at Binbrook, Although they always did that on a day I was ever there. They usually had them extracted within hours. I don't suppose there are many airfield left that still have airfield barriers .?? Mona had/has it for Valley trainers. Anyo...

Caen & Cherbourg Airports 6/7th June 2024

Hi all, First photo post in a while, and thought it would be a good time to do so after a brilliant couple of days over in northern France last week. Having spent the 5th of June at Upottery and Dunkeswell airfield shooting the Aerolegends C-47s, my plan for the rest of the week was to head to the M...

Re: Micro Four Thirds opinions sought

If I could add my 2ps worth: I had the OMD EM1X for roughly six months, couple with the Olympus 100-400, as a bit of an experiment and a delve into the micro four thirds world. I enjoyed using the combo, particularly when it gives you the equivalent of 800mm reach at the long end. The price of the c...

Re: Lightroom CC Advice - Bluer Skies

You can also use the Hue/ saturation/ luminance sliders to tweak and make the sky "pop". Just increase the blues and aquas and it will only target those specific colours. Worth playing around with those to try and create a bluer sky.

Re: Townsend Camping

Surprised at the comments about this but could not help but notice some of the points too. The free for all pitching everywhere did not work in my opinion, we pitched by the orange barrier in the second field and had it not been for the fact we chose to stay on the campsite on Saturday, I fail to se...

Fairford 16th June- B-1 Heaven!

Hi all, Set the alarm for 2am to get up to Fairford last Friday in time for some Sunrise shots. Well, that did not go to plan and ended up waking up at 3.30am :'( A frantic dash up the A303 and various A-roads got me at Fairford at around 4.55, and by the time I had parked up one of the B-52s took o...
