I can only really echo what the other members of FC have said Jamie- these really are a cracking set of images. I'm especially impressed with the shot of the RC returning at the end of the day.
I was shooting it from the Anglian Water gate, and the light had all but gone by the time he arrived, but you've still nailed a superb capture of him there.

Awesome mate- just awesome. :thumbs:

Jamie,

These are stunning images. Just goes to show that you do not always need perfect sunshine to capture a great image.
Particularly like the RC135U on recovery and the cloud formation on the Combat Shadow.
