That's a great set, Jonathon. Nicely done! Who was flying the Spitfire? Looks a bit like Stu Goldspink. Were you in the Rapide? If so, how did you find shooting through the windows? Considering going for this myself :)

The show was advance tickets only anyway I think. Sounds like they had a hard time with traffic. Lovely shot with great colour, nice one :)

The over-fuelled Spitfire shot is nice - you often get this when over-primed but as I understand it this continued a bit longer than usual. That's a great perspective on the Blenheim too!

Numbers 4 and 6 are my faves, nice work. Number 4 - that wall of water is incredible.

Nice set of shots there! :) 4, 7 & 10 are my picks from the bunch.

I went to WHF a while ago and some of the enclosures don't let much light in. Having the faster lens might prove helpful. If on a photography day they let you up to the inner fence on some of the enclosures so you could be pretty close too.

I'm using the 1Dx and a 200-400. I'm not a big fan of the naughty field. I get the joke regarding light but I worry about something going in over there (the skyraider was lucky not to a few years ago) or the pilots, some of them my friends, being robbed of an option in an emergency. Also all...

Thanks! Yes, all hand held with IS on mode 2. Thanks, Paul :)

Cheers, Harry!

Thanks for the kind words, John. The sea king was tricky, a minor stroke of luck involved too. When the weather is poor I often throw caution to the wind and crank the shutter speed down, it really makes you focus on moving smoothly.

2, 3 and 6 do it for me. Good set all round though, Harry. We were pretty lucky not to be drenched!

Lovely series of a beautiful aircraft, it was a stunning display. Almost made for photographers it seemed

Lovely set, I think 2 and 4 are my favourites. Nice work :-)

Thanks, Glyn :-)
