YAM Nightshoot

Looks like an interesting event but why do so many of these night shoot events go to so much effort and then light the aircraft so harshly. A few well positioned lights with some subtle coloured filters would work much better than direct floodlights aimed straight at the subject

There all good, but I liked the silhouette of the photographers and their tri[pods, also the shadow on the hanger doors.
I like to take photos like that myself when I am out and about, they break up the photos of the same subject and give a feel for being there. Thank you.

The joys of being a museum volunteer, something that I have not been able to do since Strathallan folded. I really miss the buzz of helping out.

Yes, I suppose factoring in the cost of the fuel it is probably worth the money.

I’ll put the YAM web site on my watch list for a night shoot some other time, I pinned my hopes on another museum, which has disappointed me.

Thanks.

If it gives you the chance of photos like that I’d say yes and i don’t even know how much it costs.

I don’t think it’d be right for me to comment on the value for money as a YAM volunteer, Wallace. Most people sounded like they went away happy, and when you consider that fuel for 2 aircraft had to be costed into it…

I’m curious to know if you think it was worth the money?
I would like to attend one of these night shoots myself but wonder whether it’s worth paying so much for the privilege.
