Flying Legends - (Warning - Lots of Pictures)

Some have said they like these type of photos - a few from Flying Legends at Duxford last weekend.

Please excuse the sharpness on some - trying a very slow shutter speed to get better prop blur !!





















Cheers

I was at Legends on Saturday with some old AW types.

It was a great show.  That Spit 18 in your last photo really sounded great with that Griffon out front.

The rest of the Spits and other warbirds looked and sounded great too, but that Spit 18 was one sweet looking and sounding bird :)

Exelent Photos!

May I ask what type of camera you use?
Do you work as a photographer?

Hi Wilbus

Thanks for the comments. All those photos were taken with a Canon 10D with 100-400L Lens using a shutter speed of 125th, which is OK on long shots, but on fast pan shots is a nightmare for blurring, even with IS.

I am a semi-professional photographer in that I do run a photography business but it is not my full time work - I wish it was !! :aok
