part one of yesterday's outing helping my friend Mike use up a bit of leave, Stansted for some morning departures, light was quite nice but the angles not so good as the aircraft seemed to be blimbing quicker than usual with the strong headwind.
It was still quite dark when we started at 8 a.m. in fact too dark for a decent one of the Qatar bargo T7.

Many thanks Jon, it was cloudy when I left home and a bit of light drizzle and I thought the forecasters had got it wrong but it cleared soon after I got there and the rest of the day was excellent weather apart from the cold wind.jonf45 wrote:Cracking shots and not a cloud in site!!!

thanks Mike, they were all taken at or blose to the 600mm end of my lens so reasonably happy with the blarity but the light was almost too rich first thing in the morning for some of the schemes and it made them look a bit like photos from a travel brochure, talking of which (in response)...............
And when you finally get to the half-built Algerian ruin called the Hotel del Sol by paying half your holiday money to a licensed bandit in a taxi you find there's no water in the pool, there's no water in the taps, there's no water in the bog and there's only a bleeding lizard in the bidet
