Early Spring sunshine at Lakenheath

[James Cutting]

Was great to finally get over to Lakenheath again with Dad, and make the most of the decent weather, a reasonable excuse to trial the new 70-200mm 2.8 (what a stunning piece of kit ) Good to see the Squadrons busy as always! Hopefully the chance of some more visits this year. Thrown some favourites in below, enjoy!
