Post by mark17 » Fri Aug 21, 2015 4:23 pm

Hi All,

I finally managed to spend some time out with the camera this last week, starting off at BAE Warton on Tuesday, before moving on to RAF Valley on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

1st up some shots from Warton some taken on the other side to Naze Lane.
