17-18TH MAR: Two Days In The Loop

[Lloydh]

First day out in the hills for me this year and since May last year, fell out of sorts with it for a while I think whilst chasing other things. It was good to be back however and some nice variety in movements over the two days, albeit rather slow at some points.
Good to catch up with everyone again as well. 17th was spent on Cad West and opting for the Bwlch top on the 18th.

Very nice. Looks like you had a good couple of days.

I really need to get back for a day out - these have wetted my appetite again

 

[Hazza]

Stunning stuff. Apache images are excellent, pin sharp! Number 4 steals it for me though, that light is terrific.

I'd like to do the loop at some point this year.

 

[Carlh]

Fantastic shots Lloyd, some proper close-ups there!

 

[gramps]

Some impressive skills in capturing those as well as you have

 

[tman]

Powerful images Lloyd

all tack sharp
especially like shot one of the Apache

 

[Cheffievrs]

Wow, probably the best Apache shot I've seen..! Superb set Lloyd, fantastic flickr stream

 

[JulesP]

Love that Apache shot - the rest are great too but #1 is really great

 

[Phil-D]

Superb! I keep coming back to pick a favourite but can't

 

[Lloydh]

Thank you all

It's sprung back in to life again in ways, 12(B) squadron having moved to Marham and the fact there isn't a squadron in Afghanistan is obviously having a major part to play.

 

[droopsnoot]

Yes, some really great shots there. Another location I'd like to find time to visit at some point.

Super set of images

 

[KEEFYP]

I do like 2 and how it puts perspective that just the aircraft don't.

 

[darkman]

Excellent captures - very jealous

 

[Alpha Delta 210]

Excellent shots and it looks as if the light was kind to you! I love the Apache and the GR4 in image 7.
