Marham and Lakenheath 26th April

Post by markranger » Wed May 11, 2016 9:21 am

With F16s at Marham and F22s at Lakenheath a day out was a must,
This day was cold and stormy but had some amazing light also,

Random shots from the 2 bases in no particular order.

Hi,

Very nice. All look good but number 6 in particular I like. It's been years since I've tried Marham.

Magnificent selection of shots - really creative and some stunning light. Number 12 is the stand out shot for me though, superb light on that Raptor.

Mark

Excellent shots as many others have already been said.
So many stand out, but I have to admit shots 1 and 2 do it for me, with no 1 just edging it - you can feel the heat and noise!
Mind you, the Belgium vipers and no 7 in particular are also special.

Thanks for sharing.
