SR 71 art IWM Duxford.
Its just beautiful. Nothing comes close to it.

S5 Pro proved useful for dragging out the detail, though upping the ISO loses some quality.

It is indeed a stunning aircraft, reminds me of something from Star Wars of Startrek. Great images.

Very nice and very manacing! Lots of detail and I like the composition, especially as I imagine their ar limited options for shooting in the museum.

The Sr71 is the best looking most awesome aircraft ever built bar none

Two great shots there. Would clone out the people in #2, but it still doesn't really detract from what is an awesome machine.

Wow, didn't realise they had one of these at Duxford!! Lovely photos of a stunning aircraft, I need to call in to see it next time I'm out over that direction.

Was there at the end of August. My son wanted to see the SR71 & B52 so we went straight to them. Were about 20 other people in there when I took that shot.
