Hi Andy hows you mate, this is at Waddington

I'm good thanks bud.

Super shot. I got up close and personal with this baby at the weekend!
The BBMF were at Southampton for the weekend.
They went off Sat and Sun for an airshow (I guess). Sat was funny. The Lanc pilot asked to do a flyby of the airport, and the tower instructed him ok, but not below 400 ft.

He buzzed a Q400 at LESS THAN 100ft

The flickr upload looks loads better.

Dont worry about him, hes old and ugly enough to take a battering from the tower or his boss

That's a cracking shot, can't fault it at all, the background makes it look like it could have been taken in 1944

 

[Defiance]

That is the best shot i've seen you post ! outstanding

Would like to see some black and white takes on it too to capture the look in 1944...

I will have a play around with it and post it for you to have a look, do you just want BnW or aged look, like authentic 40s

Fantastic shot of a wonderful old aircraft. The Flikr upload looks really striking.

Super pic., interesting the Fickr presentation?? seen this before, no idea why? Use PB all the time no problems

No critic? . . . the way the Flickr pic presents on my screen, it cuts 40/50% of the foreground grass off . . . looks more balanced IMHO . . . :shrug:

 

[Dazzler]

Nice capture, especially of the props - just right for me.

 

[Paulie-W]

Nicely caught Pete.

Hope you dont mind but.... I couldn't resist

I'll remove it if you dont like it mate.
