A quick introduction from me!

Post by JoeRuscoe »

Hi All! I'm Joe, 19 years of age and I'm from Shawbury. I have a keen interest in aviation and photography along with many of you who are on here!

Here are a few pictures from my local base, RAF Shawbury to get me going! I look forward to sharing more of my pictures with you lot throughout the year and contribute to the forum! :)

Good set. I was also 19 when I first started taking aviation photos seriously, way, way back in the mists of time!
