Alpha Delta 210 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 I think that this will be my final batch for a while. It seems that Waddington 2004 was my very first major air show with a digital SLR. Nice to reminisce.... I hope you enjoyed them. Thanks for looking. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canberraman Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Yet more memories Leigh. I was still exclusively shooting slides until 2006 so its good to see your digital from the years before. Personal favorites are the P3 and the Frecce crossover - very nice indeed! Regards Mark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Mark Hi Mark. Thanks for the kind words. I enjoyed looking at these again and posted the Frecce crossover because I don't think that I have a similar image in any of the subsequent years. As for the RNZAF Orion, I had no recollection of ever seeing one flying! Most of these images were very over-exposed, so I was obviously struggling with the new-fangled technology that I had largely overcome by RIAT a few weeks later!

It is possible to see how air shows have changed in recent years when you look at my Jaguar and SAAB images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks @Alpha Delta 210 Thanks Alan. I'm pleased that you enjoyed them. I still enjoy air shows, but when I look back at my Waddington and RIAT images, the variety of types and the proximity of the displays have certainly changed in recent years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the 125 had "delivered" one of the Royals to the show! The Nimrod looks as smokey as a B-52! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
