A few more From Duxford's Spring Show

Here are a few of my pictures.

These are just the ones that were quick to process. As I always shoot in RAW mode (file type, not my manner of dressing :lol: ), many of the air shots (particularly the fast jets) need much more work. I'll post these when I have a little more time.
Not to mention, having spent about 30min, cleaning and checking my sensor, a great lump of dust landed on it after the first few shots :@

Thanks, Steve

Lovely Kevin. Thanks for sharing.

Just sorry I could not make it with my box brownie. But you should all be glad I didn't come - it always rains when I do. :lol:

Great! I particularly like the Sea Hawk/Fire together. Don't they make a lovely couple!

Thanks, guys.

I've got lots more, but need to spend time cropping etc.

Yes, the Sea Hawk/Sea Fire look great together. Then again, they also look great on their own.

Regards

Kevin

Yes - very nice pics, thanks.

I do wish they wouldn't defame the T-Spit with the sponsors logo. I know they need the money and are probably very grateful for it - but it doesn't seem right.

Unfortunately, that's the way of the world. At least it's not as vulgar as the Red Bull Sea Vixen was.

Give Carolyn Grace several tens of thousands of pounds per year and she'd remove them for you I suspect. Having said that, they are, and always have been very tastefully applied in keeping with the markings of the aircraft.

We'll have to agree to disagree on that one - white is never subtle when it's on a dark background....

To me, it instantly stuck out like a sore thumb.
