Vulcan

by Hullman

Another shot of today's Vulcan fly-by, slightly different angle from others for variety. Very grey at Coventry so not very interesting..

The grey skies aren't a problem here, in fact I think they enhance the colours. You have nailed this one

Couldn't agree more
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

I agree with David, it's not very often this big bird has wingtip contrails and it's difficult to capture the black exhaust trail which so often disappears in the processing. Nice one!

Thanks for the comments guys, glad you liked it. It did take a little work to get some of the colours out of the sky, but overall it came out OK. Might have been better if my K3 hadn't had a fit with a low battery flapping the mirror at a million time a second. Had to do a quick swap to a K5 as backup

As you say, quite different to all the rest - not many others were treated to wing tip vortices! Love it!
