I've still got lots of images to sift through so here's a selection of the shots I've processed so far, in no particular order. Many thanks to everyone who made it another special weekend.

Well done...Well done, I like the Spit flames the best but they are all outstanding shots. Thanks for sharing them...

Sweet Christ, Rob! Those are absolutely jaw dropping... I didn't think you'd top that first shot, but then I got to the Morane in the fog, and the Spit with the stack flames.

If I had managed to shoot any ONE of those, I'd be wetting myself with joy. What camera and lens combo are you using?

Absolutely tremendous work!

Beautiful work.....thanks!

[Robbo]

Thanks for the kind feedback.

Lynn, most of these were taken with a Canon 5D MkII and Canon EF 400mm f4 DO IS L lens.

Lightjug, on the Saturday I was on top of the "fuel bank" at the Western end (airside at the end of the grass runway) and on the second day I was by the side of the taxyway at the Eastern end (with the video cameraman).

PS - So, I guess the chances of me having anything but 3 days of pouring rain at Duxford next year would be what...one in ten hundred gazillion?

[Andy in West Oz]

Superb.

[Don Parsons]

I agree with Lynn on the 3 favorites. Love that first shot of the 3 spits.

Outstanding job, nice work.

Nice!

Lynn, most of these were taken with a Canon 5D MkII and Canon EOS 400mm f4 DO IS L lens.

And a lot of skill, practice and imagination.

Not to mention some useful access...

Good equipment's part of the kit, but good kit won't make a bad photographer good, while a good photographer can do wonders...
