    Air to air I forgot to post!

    How do you brief the air to air shoots? Are the crews you work with keen for detail or are they happy to wing it? I've got quite a tested briefing process but an interested in how others do it.

    Critique Danish Merlins at RAF Valley

    I highly recommend it. Some of the 'interior' shots in my Air to Air Merlin thread were taken with this lens. It's really robust and seems to do great things to skies!
