Wow – is that oil seed rape reflecting yellow onto the bottom of those aircraft? It’s a great effect!

Great shots, Peter!

Particularly like the one of the two Red Arrows passing each other. If only we could work out a way of getting them *both* unblurred!!!! Great shot.

Spitfire PS915 also looks fine – as mentioned above, a tiny bit more contrast would bring it out even more.

Finally that shot of Sally and the four fighters is superb 🙂

That’s better, Peter. I think you might’ve gone slightly to far with the contrast in #2, but the others are spot on. Another good set of pictures. #4 is a cracker:)

lovely shots, what speed did you shoot with, would agree on a bit more contrast if I was extra picky but so much better than I could have done. Very well done.

Hiya,

Thanks for the comments everyone, The prop aircraft were shot at either 1/250 or 1/320.

I will bear that in mind with a little more contrast 🙂

A couple more, I have found at least 20 more shots that I will edit as well 🙂

Very nice pictures. You did well to get the Red Arrows crossover at just the right moment.

Hi Peter,

Great set of pictures. On the comments front – I would just add a wee bit more contrast and darken them, just a fraction, but other than that :eagerness:

TTFN,
Neil

Interesting shots there Pete! Nice to see some arty ones as well as the usual posed ones. Well done that man!
