Lee on-The-Solent Airfield January 2014 Update 3 14th
Hey all, something different today.
New year, still rubbish weather, but i went outside the base to see how far i could see with my new toy. Can't wait to have a full bright sunny day. This dull weather really makes it difficult. These pictures might not be as great as normal, but gotta get used to it
N6466, DeHavilland DH82A Tiger Moth (G-ANKZ) did visit, but didn't get a chance to get a picture Think it was the only visitor today.
All handheld......8th January

Re: Lee on-The-Solent Airfield January 2014
Anything from 250-1000+ did try 125 on a bird and got a clear shot. I will try that low on a aircraft soon, but i got a feeling it will be nasty
I really need a tripod. So many around just don't know what to get. Confusing which is best.
If i do pop down Headcorn this year, i will bring my 800mm for you to try.

I am sure some of the guys on here will advise you on what tripod and head to get.

Re: Lee on-The-Solent Airfield January 2014 Update 3 14th
Thanks for the comments. Colin it was a bit of both, some with 800mm and other 100-400. I will try to sort out that exif on flickr, when I'm home. Still all handheld. I'm 30 in 3 weeks maybe I will get a tripod for my birthday if only.
Cheers Terry, let's hope for a sunny weekend. As I am working the rest of the week, I'm glad there is not much sunshine on offer hate it when it's a lovely sunny day and I'm busy

Great shots there, good to have something from the air. Always enjoy looking around the area. Look forward to more in the future. The Isle of Wight looks tiny from the sky.
