Concorde - three views

[RobertC]

This picture of Concorde dates from 1992. It is a scan of a colour slide and was taken using a Canon 50E (I think) film camera. I posted it on my Facebook page a week or so ago and it stirred up a few interesting recollections and comments.

This second picture was taken on Sunday of the Concorde at Brooklands Museum. 5D mk3 with a 16-35 lens. The problem with Brooklands there is always a lot of clutter around.

Finally, slightly abstract Concorde reflected in the Napier Railton.

Excellent Robert. Hard to imagine that it first flew just a couple of months before Neil & Buzz walked on the moon and that now we have nothing that is even remotely as fast.

I remember when we lived at Wimborne, one day I heard a tremendous racket and I thought the house was about to come down. It was Concorde at the Bournemouth airshow, flying over our house so low I could almost touch it.
