Duxford 2008

Postby SEMAE on Sun 07 Sep 2008, 12:38 am

A few from Saturday to start with.

Despite cancellation of the Spitfire, Hunter and a couple of other acts due to low visibility and high cross winds, I enjoyed the show very much. The wind made for some nice looking landing approaches.

Hoping for better weather on Sunday.

Wow, the best images I have seen so far (IMHO) Semae, pin sharp and crystal clear. :clap:

You done incredibley well in what certainly looks to be rough conditions, I only hope today is better, partly because I'll be there too! LOL.

Cheers,

Kev.

Nice pics. I particularly like the Hurri. I was there Saturday but standing up at the land warfare hall end. The sun was playing merry hell with the exposure as they banked round for the topside shots. :sad:

I seem to be struggling with prop shots since I went digital. I used to take props at 125 with shutter priority. Now I get very shaky, blurry images at 160. Maybe my hand isn't as stedy as it used to be, maybe its the woeful autofocs and dismal F stop range of my 50 - 500 "bigma" or maybe looking at my pics on a big screen rather than a 6x4 print shows up all the imperfections. :question:

Is your lens equipped with autostbilisation?

Very nice work, the 2 landing C47s is the stand out shot for me.
