WOW!!!! what a set of photos. Thankyou for sharing them.

Excellent set of images, really recording the Anniversary well. The closest I have come to these great aircrafts is photographing the remains at various crash sites around where I live.

As above, SUPERB set of images. They really capture the history and feeling of WW2. Well done!

Yes indeed a great set of pic's from Duxford, I wish I had gone to it as well now ! sob

 

[PerfectSpeed]

As above, and fantastic last shot though, what a shame you missed his face.

Great set, but I don't understand the third shot for 2 reasons:

1. The 2nd from the right 'aircrew' dude has what appears to be a Nav brevet, which makes no sense if they are recreating a Spitfire Sqn.

2. Accepting that he is a Nav, why isn't he making the tea ..... ?

What a great set. Love 3 and 4 but the 6 is my fave.

 

[Deckard]

A great set! Very atmospheric.

 

[CaptainPenguin]

Love the aircrew shots and the Sepia treatment is very skilfull

 

[horrocks]

Excellent set, really superb and unusual.

I think I would be tempted to crop away everything in #2 apart from the planes. The pylons are just too wrong!

Perhaps the vignette is just a little too abrupt in the (otherwise excellent) #3.

Love the skilful DOF treatment in some of the shots.

As he's ranked up as a Sqn Ldr, you can damn well tell him! :razz:

The half brevet could easily be an 'FC' though!!
