Thanks for your comments. It was my first time out with the new lens and to be honest, I'm not 100% happy, but they will do. I hope to see you all over the coming weeks.

Cheers

Wow, nice pictures that you've made of "our" aircrafts.
I've also seen them on their exercise in The Netherlands.
Nice so see them into another country.

Love number 5, snow behind really makes that shot.

Great set Pete, sharp and punchy - don't be a stranger!

Yes, these were all taken with the 500 f4.5

Thanks for the kind words. I have a few extras, but I'll hold back posting them just yet.

Cheers ;)

Thought I'd add a few shots to the thread. This time some close ups, some monochromes and a couple of shots with the 70-200.

What a great set! Monochrome Apaches stand out for me, the blades of grass add a lot to each photo :clap:
