Low flying has certainly been quiet around this area for a while but we did get a few passes on Thursday.

Thanks for the comments guy's 
I use a Nikon D300 dSLR and a Nikon 300mm f2.8 prime lens. If I need a little extra reach I use a x1.4 teleconverter which turns the 300mm f2.8 lens in to a 420mm f4. I always use auto focus.
All shots taken from Cad West which is part of the Mach Loop. This is located just south of Dolgellau, Mid Wales. I've more info on my site www.rcflights.co.uk

Well we might well have seen the same jets!
We did hear several rumbling around that day, including some large ones (which I guess was the Herc).
But we were doing river studies lol, so I couldn't admire them all day!

Great shots,
I am jealous at not being able to get there - at least for a couple of years. LOVE the shot of Albert, all of the shots are nice and sharp.....but and there always is a but, why did you B&W the Typhoon. Personally (I know) it takes all of the interest away for me. If you shot it in colour would you mind putting it up in colour - just for me!

Don't let plod see the first Hawk piccie - the chap in the front seat is on his mobile. I can clearly read his registration as well.
Great pics though.
Another technical question Mark - do you use the Nikon's 'burst' function when shooting the aircraft as they fly past, then simply pick out the best shots?
