Agree with Strike Eagle here I love your use of color and light...Stunning..Now seeing all that water vapor pouring into the intake in shot 1, I can understand why LN do a FOD walk every morning. Thanks for posting :clap:

Fantastic, thanks for sharing :-)

Big question to everyone - are the Raptors still here all next week? If so, are they likely to be flying everyday? Thinking of heading down either Tuesday or Wednesday from Sheffield...

Thanks all.
