Lakenheath & Mildenhall
It's that time of year when I concentrate more on nature photography than anything else, however I have had a few visits to Suffolk's twin USAF bases when I have been passing on the way to the Norfolk coast, here are a few images from the past month. Many more on Flickr, and lots of other subjects too!

Re: Lakenheath & Mildenhall
All superb, you manage to achieve a different take on proceedings with a unique character to the shots every time you visit Lakenheath. First E3 shot stands out for me though
Re: Lakenheath & Mildenhall
HH-60 and E-3 stick out for me Nigel,You won't get better light than that.

Another great set, number 10 for me, I'm planing a trip down next week, where was 10 taken from? along the footpath from the viewing area?
Re: Lakenheath & Mildenhall
The HH-60, E-3 and last F-15 shots are brilliant. Fantastic shots.

If a man speaks in the middle of a forest and no woman can hear him, is he still wrong?
