Paul.

I know we should focus on the aircraft shots which are brilliant, but the last two are great.

Stunning! First shot of "HW" is fantastic. I really hope I can catch them LL before they go. :sad:

Second last shot is beautiful too. :clap:

In several of the shots the background behind the canopy doesn't match the surroundings. For example, in the second shot you've got a blue canopy against a background of trees, , what's going on there?

That often happens with mountains and sky above.
You get a warped effect through the canopy.
Top shooting mr Batman :clap:
