Valhalla at Wattisham

Post by tommc »

The skies around Suffolk were a once familiar stomping ground for the Lynx. Nice to see them back again for the final time. The sun always makes photography a problem here at this time of year, so I stumped for a distant 05 end location, to help, I think it paid off OK.

Specially marked for the final flight was ZG917

Awesome shots, Tommc. I love that ZG917. The last pic looks so cinematographic by the way. It's beautiful.

Thanks for that. I just guessed correctly on the best place to be.
