They are all good Mike, but again the last one nudges it for me, excellent timing and the sense of speed whilst the driver's focussed on dragging the car around the corner.

Well shot John, I think I'd like you to go even closer with either the crop or shot closer, may need just a tad more DOF as well just enough to have the total flower sharp, the colours are superb.

LOL, that'll need to be the most powerful flash ever to get any bounce effect from there, also cant also decide if the tog is a lass or a bloke, not that it matters but would you wear white trainers with a suit to a wedding !!

A different place this time, pitched up at Brize for a few hours, a busy morning, within 2 hours had a C17 take off, then do 3 practise landings but without touching, 2 x A332's and 2 x C130's, went to grab some lunch in a local pub, pitched up at the other end of the runway and 1 x A332 returned plus a C130 within 25 mins.

Thanks David / Lennybloke

Its a fab spot as mentioned before and just a waiting game to see if anything passes through, you can hedge your bets slightly, I've found a Tue - Thurs is the best, the hotel I use is just on the turning to Talyllyn and good for an early brekkie as well, even on a day trip.

Thanks Mike / Pentaxophile,

The location is outstanding and you don't need massive lenses either, particularly if you sit slightly lower than the stile on Cad West, the higher up you go, the further away you are, I tend to use a 100 -300 F4 and a lot of my shots are around the 150mm area, I took a good friend up for the first time recently and all he had was a 24 - 80 and with a crop, his images were decent.

What were the limits set in camera for min and max ISO ? If these were to low, that may have caused the issue.

I have found by experience, some triggers perform better on Pentax camera's when the max sync speed is dropped slightly, for example on a K5 dropping it from 1/160th to 1/125 solves these sort of issues, give it a try.
