Loving the 1st and 3rd shots Mik

All good Mr Monkey. The display is still a little high for me to rush over , but I hope to catch the Red Arrows this Monday along with a bingo slot for Turbo.

Yes he was extremely high I could do with a 600mm prime but too much money at moment, Think it will be busy there tomorrow so I’m giving it a miss  But am hopefully going to Lakenheath Wed weather permitting 

Visited RAF Congingsby the other day and managed to see Blackjack (The Typhoon that does the air shows}take off and landing and 2 extremely long range shots of a practice display on the day. conditions were not good and had to do a lot oon the 2 long heavily cropped shots to get rid of noise.

Lovely 

Beautiful shot

Peak Design  slide straps are what I use for my gear as a Canon 1Dx2 with 100-400mm and 1.4x extender  can be very heavy, you can place camera round in small of your back  whilst not in use and easy to get when needed 

Only just seen this. Very very sad news

Nice shot

Thank you 

my old one on the righ well used with 360.000 actuations now retired to single shot use with 24-70mm f2.8L mk11 and the newer immaculate one with less than 11.000 actuations on the left with my 100-400mm mk11 

Highfields is a decent sized lake but this puddle was obviously more suitable for drinking

Taken at Highfields Park

Had its fill of fish and flying back to land opposite side of lake and dry off
