Heathrow, 5th March 2015

I attended the Nightshoot at Northolt last night, so as a pre-cursor to that went along to Myrtle Avenue for a couple of hours earlier in the day... I'd not been to Heathrow for a number of years - the last time was to the Queen's building when I was a lad(!), or on the top of one of the car parks i...

Photos from yesteryear...

Found some old slides in the parents loft earlier on. In amongst them were some aviation related ones - I believe these were taken in Aug / Sept 1981. I think they were taken at Gatwick - but I might be wrong (I was only 4 when they were taken!!) 1. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7293/16646109931_87...

Recent Paris, Charles De Gaulle

Recently took the Mrs for a weekend break in Paris and here are some movements that I caught at Paris CDG whilst waiting for the flight home. Only took photos of 4, mainly cos it was supposed to be a romantic break!! 1. https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8619/16430726267_143f9afb7f_b.jpg F-GUGB by talld...

Re: A Parisian Weekend...

Thanks Andy... Didn't go to Le Bourget I'm afraid - think I would have been shot if I had suggested visiting an aviation museum during the weekend!! Here's a similar way to how I did the selective colour on the sign - it is based on Photoshop though, however once you do it once it is quite straight-...

A Parisian Weekend...

Hi all... Spent the weekend in Paris for a romantic break with the Mrs, but was allowed to take the camera with me, and managed some OK shots... I wasn't able to spend too much time over any of the photos, but am quite happy with how some of them came out! 1. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7343/1654...

Re: Canon announce 4 new DSLRs

I know your conundrum Andy... I have been thinking about getting a 2nd body to replace my 600d, and was thinking of the 70d - however the 760d looks very similar in terms of spec, and the price is a lot more appealing as well!! RRP of £649 - so hopefully will be a little lower than that, or bring th...

Like Andy, I'm going with a photo of UR-CAK. This time leaving it's smoky trail, as it left Stansted for Morrocco on the 17th January. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7471/16309575681_7ebf576cc3_b.jpg UR-CAK - Ukraine Air Alliance Antonov An-12BK by talldan76 , on Flickr Good luck everyone... Dan

Great set Ben, in some very nice light!!

I do hope that the people that own the houses on the end of that row in No. 3 are into aviation - prime photography / spotting location or what!!

Here's my selection from today at Stansted. Was good to meet Andy down there, on what was a very cold afternoon..! First up, a rather smoky arrival from the star attraction of the day, the Antonov AN-12... unfortunately I screwed up pretty much all of the departure, so there are none of that (will s...
