Here are a few of my Shoreham shots from a very bright Saturday.

Shoreham more part 2
Thanks for your comments.
This was my first time at Shoreham and it has a great background location for photography. The show organisation kept the planes coming with a wide variety of types, so there was plenty of opportunity to practice aviation photos.
The day was very sunny and the bright or white painted aircraft like the Catalina stood out well. It is an interesting aircraft, because of its role as an amphibian and its wartime history.
The only problem was the no-show of the Vulcan. I was at the Waddington show this year on the very wet Sunday, and it could only do a ground run. So this is the second show for me with no Vulcan aerial shots!

Excellent Pictures, the Catalina does look very cool there!
When I went to Duxford The B-17 Sally-B And Catalina was not flying, they both had problems.
