Re: Devon Photography
I think for me, less is more, you have multiple shots of the same subject, pick the best image/s and show those, you've duplicated the Sea king shots in with Helicopters. Are you aiming for a photography web site that shows off your skills as a photographer or one that shows every aircraft seen / sh...

Re: Night shoots
You'll need a relatively high ISO depending on the light available, certainly 400 and prob 800 at least, keep the aperture of the lens wide open so F2.8 if you have it, or 3.5 / 4.5, use shutter speed priority which'll keep the shutter speed as high as poss, ands last but not least, good technique.

Re: KC97 Restaurant Colorado Springs (The Airplane restaurant)
On a similar note, The Aviator at Staverton airport in between Gloucester and Cheltenham is pretty good

Re: Top five aircraft moments

Re: Buzz off RAF low flyers hit by flack
On the same sort of subject, is it worth a trip to the loop these days, been loads of times in the past but with the Tornados now grounded and I believe Typhoon still not transiting through LF7. Its always good for C130's not seen an A400 or any Apaches or Chinooks as yet. Its always pot luck, I und...

Re: Military visitors at Civvy field
Staverton gets its fair share of Herc's /Apache's / Chinook's and Puma's,seen all of these from time to time, also seen a BBMF Spit land refuel and go and DC3 do a flypast, no serials unfortunately, but I'm a keen local aviation photographer.

Re: Can you still see XH558
As mentioned before, the one at Coventry Air Museum or Wellesbourne are worthy of a visit, Wellesbourne is only open at the weekends thou as far as I'm aware, the 2 aren't that far apart so you could do both !!
