Duxford Spring Air Show, 22nd May

[Mossie]

Hi there,

Here are my efforts from Duxford's Sping Show to add to the many others!

Despite the wind causing havoc with the show's main theme, I thought it was a very enjoyable display and an good curtain raiser to Duxford's airshow year. The Meteor and TFC's P-40B & Hawk 75 were especially welcome and I'm happy to see the F-86A as much as possible before we inevitably lose it abroad.

As ever, sorry for the large number of images and C&C are welcome

Thanks

Geoff

Absolutely fantastic Geoff!

Too many good ones to pick a favourite.

Top work!

Geoff,

Very nice set!!! I enjoyed them all. You pretty much captured the day at Duxford.

Well done...

Excellent set

[Bumblebee]

Wow very very nice

[Stu]

What a fantastic set some best I've seen from weekend

[StevenH]

Really like this set, some very good shots in here.

[IanOlder]

Superb set of shots Geoff.
The Sabre topside in the sun with dark clouds has to be a contender for potw but they're all excellent.

[sylvancatharsis]

Yep, that's a killer set. Those Sabre and Meteor shots are just ace

[Tbolt]

Fantastic set of pictures

I usually go up the other end of the airfield but looking at some of the angles you got I think I need to try the eastern end.

[Jamie]

Great set, difficult to pick a favoirte, all very good.

Cheers, Jamie.

[Bjorn]

Great!
Must say I like the sideview Sabre and the P-40 shots a little bit extra in a set where all are very good
Makes me want to go back to Duxford again and, like somebody else said, try the eastern and of the field.

[Corsair]

Absolutely fantastic, best set I have seen from the sring show I think I will be down the eastern end for legends.

Absolute stonking set from this show, a far cry from the rubbish I produced from the Tank Bank...... superb!

[Mossie]

Many thanks for the positive comments. I'm glad that you liked them.

I'm usually a Tank Bank fan, but have found that at the Spring Show the lower sun causes more problems from there & I get better results from the M11 end. Now I just need to decide whether to try the same spot for other shows as well.

The flying shots are mostly taken with a Canon EOS 1D MkIII & 300mm 2.8L + 1.4 Convertor, although some of the earlier ones in the show were taken with the same lenses on a Canon EOS 50D

If you're not too bored here are a few more shots.

Once again, thanks for the comments

Beautiful photographs, very nice indeed!

Go on then, I am itching to know, in shot 5 (first section) how did you get that photo of the nose without your reflection in it?

Brilliant Geoff!
