Spitfire
Spitfire taken at Old Warden many years ago on a Pentax Z1p on slide film and with a 70-200 zoom . Scanned, and a little bit of tidying up in Photoshop.

Excellent original capture/composition of the aircraft and well processed from slide - well taken. Rare to see a spit with clipped wings, possibly a carrier spit.

This is a really good shot, Martin. It must have been pretty low! It is the Mk.Vc from the Shuttleworth collection, I think.It was flown by the Czech 310 squadron which accounts for the Czech roundel in front of the cockpit. They sound great too, don't they? Thanks for showing us this.
