I can safely say I am so so happy with all of today’s photos but this for me was something special, haven’t seen the Lancaster with an ocean backdrop like this for several years & today I remembered what an amazing sight it was. 💕

I came away from Coningbsy this evening feeling a little disheartened. I’d over exposed my photos in an already sun bleached sky….A lovely surprise however when I pulled the exposure back to see the colours that had been masked by the sun as the Lancaster came in to land 😍

I was in two minds whether to post today’s pics or not, they’re pretty abysmal. Stood in the wrong place and the light was a massive challenge! Hey ho, you win some, you lose some. I think this is one-nil to the gods against photography 😂

Not shooting into the sun as such on this one but when the typhoon passes under the sun and the light catches the vapour it gives this awesome rainbow effect!

Yesterday I was given an amazing opportunity to photograph Blades 1-4 in formation with 2 Spitfires. Air to air photography is not easy & I have a lot to learn but for a first attempt I hope the guys aren’t too disappointed! (I’ll let the team use the rest as they see fit).
