For all the scenery and authenticity that Duxford oozes, i never understood why they did not move the row of general aviation kites out of sight for the weekend..

Very nice shot chip, you did well!

A ’42 Jeep would look nice there too!

(I’d also tone down the aluminium ladder a bit).;)

cheers from cold Norway,

It’s lovely, but Duxford’s pristine grass makes it look far too ‘chocolate box’ for reality.

I’d guess the IWM would be pretty vexed if you carved up the turf and muddied it all up a bit in your search for authenticity?

Maybe, but the basics are all there – a decent Photoshopper should be able to make quite a bit from that. If I was any good I’d have a go myself.

First job would be to tone the colours down a bit, though – the pink on the nose art is practically dayglo!

What a realy nice picture, the angry looking sky behind realy makes it.
Can you remove the GA aircraft behind. This pic is book cover stuff.
Thank you for sharing it with us.
