Now! That is what I call a photograph! Composition, subject matter...

Needs to be printed out at 18x24 and framed. Says everything about FC people.

Sorry, getting carried away but a combo of Welsh mountains, fast jets and photography, what more is there to life?

Ok, money and health...

It is a damned good photo though a great one for the desktop?

I've just put it on full screen[19"] with a thin white border and a black background. It really does it justice. Definitely one for the history record of Tornado flying at it's best.
