I Haven't posted photos on the forum for a while, but I thought today would be a good day to do so.

That last one is a real cracker. North Weald, yes?

Am I right in thinking that the Spitfire XVI shot was taken at Dover? I was there on the Saturday and she was grounded at Lydd, waiting for a replacement tyre IIRC. Looks like she was pretty close to you, was this at the school? :shock:

Thanks Man :smile: The final photo is at Weald and yes the Spit shot sure is Dover, on the sunday at the Duke of York's Military School. Despite the display being backlit from a photographers point of view I didn't mind and I quite like the photos I got (there's 2 more on Flickr), more shilouette types something a bit different. But from a pure aviation enthusuast point of view it was one of the best Spitfire displays I've seen all year! It was a really close display and Cliff Spink flew it beautifully :clap:

Cheers, Huw :smile:

Hey Huw, good to see a post from you, and a quality one it is too, some very sombre and moody shots there.
