Blind man goes to watch an airshow & expects to see nothing!

As I am still recovering from retina attachment surgery which has left me with severe cataract in my right eye,
I thought I'll give the Farnborough Airshow a go. I watch from outside at South Pavilion along with a few hundred other people.

Shot with a Canon 50D with 100-400mm IS USM, a very expensive point and shoot!















This gives you an idea of what I can see out of my right eye!


Thanks to Private Pile for the company.

C+C welcome

Fabulous images, even if it's an expensive point and shoot!

Sincerely hope your right eye is on the mend.

Cheers

Well done Mate , glad you got some keepers, despite your problem. Hope you enjoyed the day, it was worth it just for the Vulcan climb out ,
Thanks for the company, and at least it didnt rain

Like the Vulcan shot and the top side A380.

Have had a cataract op myself so know what your vision looks like. Now I'm mono vision, one eye long, one short vision. Best of both worlds.

Hopefully things will improve for you.
