Disgustingly excellent as always.

That Vulcan shot is Aeronautical pornography

That Vulcan shot is amazing. It's just a shame your watermark ruins all the photo's, although I understand why it needs to be there.

Great composites and I love the "air 2 air"s as well. Always enjoy seeing your work.

Amazing as always! Got any of the Swordfish air to air?

Unfortunately not! But I might give OC RN Historic Flt a call and see if he could use my services!

Here is some more PS fun:

Nice, if I had to pick one as a favourite I'd go for the first Hawk shot....the Vulcan being a very close second.

No, the last Vulcan shot. Absolulately superb, the curves over the fuselage. One of the best Vulcan photos Ive seen.

Well done.

even if its been PS d.

That first shot of the banking Vulcan is ace. Great exposure, really good light, iconic silhouette. The little trails off the wing tips are magical.

The rest don't do that much for me simply because they're not as dynamic in terms of what they're showing. Was this during a display flight or something?

Wow..... fantastic work. All beautiful planes, and all beautifully shot!!!!

Thanks for the comment, the Hawk shots were purely spur of the moment but I'm really happy with them.

Thankyou. It is PS'd but I'm happy with the way the two exposures have alligned. I got a great tip from a guy on Fighter Control telling me to apply a subtle filter to the entire image after flattening to bond th eimage together, to that end I've applied a 0.6 pixel gausian blur to the entire image.

The Hawks were taken on recovery to Valley, the Vulcan shots were taken at FIAS 2012, the Lanc was taken at the Best of British Show at Kemble in 2012 and the Spit was shot at Coningsby in 2005!

Wow..... fantastic work. All beautiful planes, and all beautifully shot!!!!

Dammit absolutely gorgeous. Still waiting for an invite to go up and try this for myself (blatant plug mode off)
I'm just jealous. Always shooting up and fancy a change.

The Vulcan is coming to the Manston airshow on June 23rd for what may be its last flight.
