Thanks for them.

My father took me to Farnborough air show when the Lightening, then English Electric and without the unsightly midriff bulge, flew along just a few feet above the runway and then pulled into a climb straight up, the exhaust almost obscuring the plane. Stunning. And then, a couple of years or so later, I paid for him to go and the Blackburn Buccaneer flew along the runway at a ridiculously low altitude, rolling slowly to demonstrate the bomb door.

Good memories of me and my dad.

Thanks.

A most interesting composition Mike.

The foreground colour mix is not something one sees everyday in Landscapes.

Is that the RAW as processed by PS Elements?

If so, do you fancy sharing the file with me to see what Capture One can do?

I think the 600mm end of the lens works well based on the pics you've posted previously but I'm interested to see how C1 processing compares at the wide end with so much small detail potentially available a the wider end.. That foreground looks like a nice play area for such activity!
Cheers LQ - be interested to see what you make of it. YHM smile

No worries good memories, my dad tells me we went to an airshow and saw them take off but unfortunatly not something I can remeber. have to be honest and say I hadn't noticed the bulge till I got home, think I prefered the other one

Lovely. Polarising filter or just very clear water?

Thanks for the kind words - much appreciated. It was a combination of a number of things - polarising filter, ND grad filter to knock back the bright sky a touch, crystal clear water and gorgeous sunny day. Quite lucky really!.

Lovely picture but the odd cloud formation (a third in from the top and a third in from the right) catches my eye every time.

I'm not generally a great fan of "arty" stuff in photo editors because I think they need careful use and few people using them seem to exercise that care. (At least in the locations I find myself freqenting.)

However, I rather like that DD. It just seems to work to be what I think you set out to achieve. Bravo!

I know the bit you mean, at some point I may revisit the editing and clone it out, but for the moment ......

More new light painting. I was granted access to a fantastic location recently and tonight I finally got to shoot there. I can see a few more visits will be needed to get everything I have planned here.

Cheers - yes generally I just end up with a dog's dinner when I try one of these but I was moderately happy with this one. Bit different to my usual anyway smile
