This is great idea for a good thread, Doug, and we have some great images already posted.
However, I hope members will remember that this is a photography forum - surely I can't be the only one interested in how the photography was done to produce these images? Cheers. Philip

Super pics but I would appreciate the technical data too. Photograph, not aircraft. Well both, really.
Ask yourself, "What's most important for the final image?".

All my shots taken with Canon 50D with 100-400mm L USM Mk1 lens. The ground shot was at 180mm focal length 200 ISO, 1/1000 at F7.1. The arial shots range 310-400mm ISO 200 1/1000 at f8 with a little cropping (using about 3/4 of the frame). Hope this helps. Also played around with these images (increased contrast & saturation) which I think helps it. Regards John

Hawker Hurriciane over Duxford Sigma 150-500 zoom @ 500, f4, 640 sec
Put through Lightroom, cropped, I do have Elements but I prefer Lightroom as there is more control over Raw files which I always shoot with.

Nice image. However, nothing is quite as startling as the one of the Raptor.

Hi Phillip / John
I will have a look at the original photo to see if the can be more space in front, John it would be interesting to see the Hurrie pull a tight G turn like that and see condensation come off the wings just before the wings folded. I could see an advert for a Panatela cigar as the pilot plummets earthbound in effectively a cigar tube while that music Air on a G-string played in the background, rather apt don't you think ! . God I really need to get out more !!!! ?

Giving his age away, what with mentioning cigars or panatellas in particular? After all, it might have been advertising a Corona or Half Corona!! King Edward Invincible Deluxe anyone?  Irrespective of the cigar connotations, they are all darned good photographs, exceptionally well captured. So well done that man, give him cigar. Oh, sorry that's where we came in!! Regards. Phil.

It is 25 years since cigars were advertised on UK TV. The Hamlet advert ran from the 60's until then, in various guises.
