Absolutely brilliant Nick, staggeringly good. You must have loads more - so get 'em on.

Superb!

Duxford_Eagles 19th Jul 2004 23:45

Nice photos Nick!

Brilliant! Think every pic I've ever seen of G-222s at RIAT have those vapour trails coming off the props - an indictment of the prevailing weather conditions at so many!

Love the cap of vapour on the Swiss F-18 canopy!

You going to Farnborough?

witchdoctor 20th Jul 2004 14:21

See what you mean about the vapour shots - really adds to the whole sense of the forces at work.

Is it just me, or are the AMRAAMS on that US Navy Super Hornet at a fairly obvious divergent angle? What's more - why? :confused:

Threadders

Have been today, cant say it blew my frock up though. However a nice lunch was had by all.

Thansk for the kind words.

treadigraph 21st Jul 2004 07:17

Ah! I'm there tomorrow, sounds like lunch may well be the best part of the day then...!

Nice shots, MotF. Didn't realise you were there Monday, I'd have come and said hello. I was further up the flight line.

You can see 'my' balloons here www.stevelevien.com/riatballoons04.htm The dog was amazing!

Dop 21st Jul 2004 14:04

Cool photos. The one with the spirals coming off the props is something I've not seen anything like before!

wub 21st Jul 2004 14:23

Prop spirals are fairly common on damp days (great pics MOTF, especially the F-15E departing)

Vintage ATCO: Oh Yus! The Churchill dog squatting on the Jag wing made me laugh out loud!

Saw your name in the programme and nearly gave you a buzz, then noticed a mahoosive Bulldog floating across the Flightline and figured you may be busy. :D

Nick

Oustanding pics from RIAT ol son! :ok:

I may be interested in a commercial or barter arrangement for a few of your Hornet pics for a book project I'm working on. Same goes for anyone else who has any recent high quality Hornet or Super Hornet pics. ;)

Please email me at...

[email protected]

...if you're interested.

Cheers

MOTF/Nick

These are quite the finest photographs I have seen of The Air Tattoo this year.

Very well done and thanks for sharing them with us. You should turn professional.

18greens 25th Jul 2004 09:07

MOTF,

Absolutely amazing pictures, very good quality.

Do you mind sharing what you are using to take the pictures. Are they digital or film. What lens /camera combination are you using?

Man-on-the-fence 25th Jul 2004 09:39

Thanks very much for your kind comments

Magoo

I have mail, will respond soon

Herc

What and give up the day job...never :D

I have sold my soul to the god of the Pixel, its a Canon D60 with (usually) a 100-400L IS Lens but in a couple of cases I was lent a 500L lens by the very nice Japenese guy sitting near to me in the stand, its an amazing lens but a bit out of my price range.

simon niceguy 25th Jul 2004 12:55

MOTF.

As usual, fantastic pics.

Thanks for sharing them with us.

Simon.

RS2 28th Jul 2004 16:37

Great pics RS2. I trust you were there on the Saturday looking at the blue skies!

Be careful with the resize and sharpening tools though to avoid the "jaggies".
