That was a lovely evening display. Thanks to all the organisers and pilots who made the most of very blustery conditions. And finally I got to see the Jungmann fly!

Great stuff, Maarvin. Roll on next season! Come and introduce yourself and have a beer with the rest of the happy band next season – there’s usually a meet-up at the beer hut an hour or two before the flying starts. 🙂
Right-ho! I’ll be there. Probably be camping out in a nearby field from April 😉
Regards.

The photos that I’ve had published in the aviation press have all brought in £25 each.
All together now……. “There’s no money in publishing”.Rob
Well its a pub lunch i guess so better than nothing.

do any of you snappers make much money out of such wonderful photography?
It’s quite an honour to be included in the above statement. I’m well chuffed.
Sigh…..The amount of times I’ve been approached with the immortal line can I use your pic? I’ll give you full credit for it. Still it’s a hobby. Gets us out in the fresh air. 😉

I do believe we have met, you usually sit near the tower. We were chatting last season about the relative merits of the 100-400 or 70-200+2x.
That’s right MOTF, I remember it well. It’s good to put a face to a name here. That was my first outing with that kit and you gave a great deal of advice which was much appreciated.
You also introduced me to the wonderful world of dust on the sensor – something of which I had been blissfully ignorant up to then. Paranoia set in that day…….. 😮
Regards.

Many thanks for the kind comments everyone.
Phillip, I’m using a Canon 10D with a 70-200 Canon LIS lens + 2x extender.

Canon have just announced the EOS20D (8mp) – only £1.50. Actually that’s just for a pair of stockings to rob the bank. Otherwise it comes in at around £1,300. Ouch…

Excellent Images
Out of interest what type of DSLR and lenses do those who post their pictures on this forum normally use?

Very nice — thank you. I don’t think Trevor wanted to bring the Spitfire back after that display!
By: Stieglitz - 12th September 2004 at 08:43
Forgive the number of Spit shots in this sequence
OK, that’s done. I think we will forgive you. 😮 Nice work Maarvin!

Nicely done Maarvin.

Forgive the number of Spit shots in this sequence, but it was one of the finest displays I’ve seen at Old Warden. A fitting end to a great season.
Regards to all.
