RIAT Departures Day 2024

Post by A380_sully » Wed Aug 21, 2024 4:46 pm

Work has got in the way of downloading and processing, so I am posting the one's I have managed to date, to prevent a extra pic heavy post! Departures day is always varied & fun, granted Fairford is currently littered with building sites and debris, so these are sympathetically chosen to not 'spoil the view'..... hope you enjoy (in no chronological order)....

Pin sharp shots! Great panning too, with spinning props, not easy! #20 and #38 stand out for me. :thumb:

Absolutely stunning set of shots! The best day at RIAT, in my opinion and you've captured it perfectly :D

Got agree with all the above comments. Exceptionally brilliant slow shutter-speed sharpness & immaculate PP. work. :thumb:

This certainly ranks as one of the best sets of photos ever. Sharp, great panning where required and some nice angles.

Thanks, I think the fact it was departing behind the leads, thus through their smoke residue allows it to pop against the faded background.

Pleasure, I've looked at the display day shots from the Sunday, but quite honestly there's little to write home about, given the weather and how far away the aircraft are these days.....
