Day/Night Shoot @ Newark Air Museum - 05Oct13

Post by Pen Pusher »

Rather than just attend the night shoot I decided to have a day out at the Newark Air Museum instead and arrived just after doors opened which meant I managed to catch the arrival of a Victor cockpit simulator/procedures trainer which is on loan to the Museum. During the afternoon there were the re-enactors dressed in flying kit who posed at various airframes around the site. Clouds rolled in late afternoon but there was a brief 15 minute or so slot where the sun managed to shine through the clouds for a few sunset shots. For the night shoot I was using the hand held 'High ISO Noise Reduction' function on my Sony A-58 SLT at ISO 1600 & 3200 and boy did I get some funny looks as the camera machine-gunned the six images it needs to work the noise reduction. Many thanks to Mick Coombes for the organisation during the evening and the museum staff and volunteers who stayed behind and the ladies who provided the excellent stew that was available in the cafe. Photos in the order they were taken and a bit heavy on the Viggen.

Lovely stuff. Viggen looks superb under the lights. :clap: Amazing considering you didn't use a tripod.

By far the best set posted. #10 is perfect.
