RAF East Kirkby comes alive 17/3/2012
I'm late to the show so I have done my best to pick different angles to the previous posters. I have to say how astonishingly good the re-enactors were - they certainly made the drive up from Devon worthwhile.
Be gentle with me - it's the first outing for my new 600D.

Got to say, a fantastic set of pictures, BZ!
What exactly do you mean Officer when you say no photography allowed? Can you be more specific?
Re: RAF East Kirkby comes alive 17/3/2012
The last one really is superb!
Re: RAF East Kirkby comes alive 17/3/2012
Thanks for the comments guys - appreciated.
The last one is at ISO 3200 so it means I can't get away with playing around with it much (I shot JPEG only). By rights it probably shouldn't have made the cut!

I think the graininess of using ISO3200 probably helped in some ways.....perhaps desaturating and making it B and W with some sepia or some such effect might also make it look genuinely like a WW2 pic. I must admit I was impressed at Duxford a few years ago by the re-enactors.

Re: RAF East Kirkby comes alive 17/3/2012
Some good constructive advice - thanks folks. Had a go. Hope those who liked the original still like it!

Great colour in this shot, looks like it's straight out of the 40's
Re: RAF East Kirkby comes alive 17/3/2012
Really like these a lot.
As others have said the 40's style colour one is bang on.
The one with the bomb under the Lanc is superb too
Note to self : must get to East Kirkby soon
Cheers
