Headcorn combined ops - Saturday 16th August.

[PBP27]

I called in at Headcorn on Saturday afternoon hoping to catch a glimpse of the Canadian Lancaster flying with the BBMF and was lucky that the weather was good. They came in at 3.45 so I believe it was on the way back up from Eastbourne ?
I usually shoot fast things going around tracks, so this was quite new to me, trying to ge the correct prop blur using a prime F4 300mm was tricky. Hope you all like.

#1 A wave from the Canadian crew.

Lovely, unfortunately I chose to go Sunday and the BBMF cancelled all flights for Sunday. Fortunately I guessed they would do that and sneaked down Saturday to a road nearby and got some shots, albeit into the sun, but at least I saw them, as it was my only chance

Super! Did you snap any of the people and vehicles?

Hi Andy, I only caught a couple of people in period dress unfortunately and no vehicles, if I had had a full day I would have done.
I have put an album on Facebook if you want to have a look , link below.
