I'd better do this before I forget as I've got lots going on at present!

Taken at Old Warden (they are the only airshows I've been to this year) at the May evening show, the Trust's newly restored Spitfire AR501 aka G-AWII showing it's beauty in the evening light, I'll never tire of watching that display:
