Went to the Shuttleworth Collection's Evening Flying Display a couple of weeks ago. Although it was quite gusty to start with, the end of the evening was very still and they decided to fly the "Edwardians". Night was falling (the last ones in were pretty much night landings) but the sunset and the planes gave a great experience.
All pictures with EOS 1D Mk II and either 70-200 f/2.8L or 500 f/4L.
1. In flight
2. Close-up of tailfin
3. Struts at sunset - I'd like to have been a touch wider but the 500 doesn't zoom!
4. Decided to have a play at taking a magazine covershot style piccie
5. Landing - This is 1/40 sec on 500mm
Hopefully going back to the August display, but it's the same weekend as the bird fair, so we'll have to see.
