Manchester 19th April

Went Southside this afternoon as Runway 2 is now open from 1pm until 8pm until October. What difference a bit of sunshine makes. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1469/25925181893_051ef51429_b.jpg 20160419-DF1A0716.jpg by Mike Grundy , on Flickr https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1608/25923131584_025d571c3...

What setting's were you using
Canon 7Dii, 24-105 f4 L IS lens, 1/1000 sec at F5, ISO 100. Post-processing I pushed up the shadows slightly to gain some detail.

Glad you like them
