Yes they are ground to air pictures, sometimes if they see you they give you a wing over or a waggle . In this case he went over a little far then he straightened up then a sharp left banking turn. Shame we never saw him again.
Looking at those pictures makes me feel so, so angry with our govt who have smashed the axe on these great aircraft 😡
The aircraft were multi-role, highly respected and loved by their pilots.
I don’t care what anyone else says, in my view it’s an absolute disgrace that they are being scrapped early.
I use a Sigma 20mm f1.8 which isnt too bad and reasonably priced,this lens gives a field of view of about 32mm on canon digital. When i put it on a film body its wide angle is awsome. I would only consider a lightweight lens like the 18-55 if i was doing a lot of travelling etc.
Hi!
If anyones on a budget i can highly recommend both this body and lens.
Incidently i also have a Sigma 28-105mm f2.8 lens and rate this highly.Check out some pics at http://www.onebigworld.fotopic.net

Not a bad lens i have one but its back with sigma with a stuck aperture, its been my main dogsbody lens and is very useful. Sigma have brought out a new updated version
Hi most of these were taken with the 135-400mm. Its an ok lens and is not as refined as the luxury lenses most users will talk about ,but mine as been through hell and back at minus 25 dropped in snow drifts .Its got knocked about but for £250 ish it is a bargain, all taken on a canon10d
Olliehomes, thank you for that i have noted it and if i am in them parts i shall have a look.It should be remembered that Lowflying is done in many places but for photography you have to be in the places where the valleys are narrow .
Yes you are very close to the runway,although for the main airshow in july it attracts lots of visiting aircraft which are parked between you and the runway.So it can block your view a little,excellent value for money.The next show is on the first weekend of september
