Golden Hour

Post by kevos1 » Wed Dec 17, 2014 6:40 pm

I was fortunate enough to be at Lakenheath as the sun was setting yesterday. its the first time in a long time that I have been treated to some nice light at Lakenheath so was very welcomed.
First time ive been on fighter control for ages due to work.

Hi Kev
Lovely set there buddy.
Quite a few of those have that 'wow' factor in that light :thumbs:
Last shot clearly shows the movement on the intakes too.
All the best

Loving the light! As someone who rarely gets down that neck of the woods, where are these images taken from?

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Some images on here are just beyond brilliant. And you sir have gone well above that brilliant line.
