Hi,
One from this morning before returning home to batten the hatches ready for Sundays predicted winds and rain (am going to take advantage by checking new locations)...
I have benn after an image similar to this for a while now, and was pleased to get the opportunity earlier, even more pleased to actually get a shot as I am hopeless at flight shots
All the best
Phil

Well this is not too shabby for someone who's allegedly hopeless

Yeah! Hopeless effort!!
Pity about the shadow on the far underwing. Next time can you get the wings up please!!

Not bad for a crappy BIF photographer I had a go at these today, but the light was poor and they were just too far away Would have loved something like this
