Some fantastic shots here, great set!

Love the apache, but it is a b*****d to photograph if you don't have the light, but you have caught this perfectly :thumb:

3 7 and 12 are the ones!! Nicely done.

Know what you mean, the light was changing throughout the day, and usually bad when 228 was in and out of the FARP, but just after 16.00 the light was excellent and got both 228 and 220 in the late afternoon light.

Fabulous set from a sometimes difficult location, especially as they were covering so many different locations in the north, let alone at OTA. And such great lighting too which was very variable during the week.
