Started out with a welcome Gally at Mildenhall.

Image
PERON43 above a visitor.
Image
Tried a trip out along the approach to get turns but the first one came straight in!
Image
Then QUID76 not quite far enough away or out but you only find new places by experiment!
Image
Back to Lakenheath for sundown, in time to catch both Ds landing together.
Image
Then a series of sunset shots...

Quite chuffed with this one.

Image
Then some night shots, not very succesful but here are a couple.

Hope they're a bit different.
Cheers, Stig.

Thanks again fellas, the Pave Hawk was at 1/50" F5.6 ISO200.
I've still got to try and get some better night shots though, I had to guess my settings and hand held doesn't really cut it.
Cheers, Stig.

Hi Stig.

We were there all day Thursday, and yesterday morning for the C5 departure. Your pictures are absolutley superb. Love the ones at Lakenheath in the dark (we were there also). Thanks very much again for the information you gave me earlier in the week, it helped make a great couple of days truly brilliant.

Cheers. Roamer.
