Good images; just the right amount of blurr on the props.
I live in Linton, about 8 miles away, and tried to photograph the end-of-day flypast but rubbish results: the single-engined Flying Legends didn't come close enough. You must have been sunburnt if you were out in that hot sun all day!

Duxford for me too on Sunday. Was there at 8.15am and all the front line positions taken. It used to be the gerry's that put their towels out, now it's the canonikon owners with their collapsible seats.
Still, it was a fantastic day alright. The flight line had been extended quite a lot over previous years giving greater opportunity to see all the planes with more or less uninterrupted views for close up static photographs. You really need several days to explore all there is to be seen. If you want noise then RIAT's the place to go. If you want history and splendour then you can't beat Duxford. A magical and moving experience.

What you need are lenses, more lenses, bigger lenses, better lenses, faster lenses, vintage lenses and when you have these, your pictures will be perfect!

Particularly like 1 and 3...clouds definitely enhance an aircraft image rather than detract from it.

She is the dual-personality B17: "Sally B" on her port side and "Memphis Belle" on her starboard. She has quite a history.The B17 is a cracker.
