Wings & Wheels - WWII fighters

[ctrollen]

I've got plenty of shots still to process from the Wings & Wheels show at Dunsfold on Saturday. Rest assured they won't all be posted here!

For starters, here is a selection of Second World War fighters that were on display.

1st one for me, lovely shot, not keen on the Buchon as a type as it just looks all wrong, but well taken and good prop blur. Hurri another good shot too, Well Done.

Thanks for looking, Tony, and for alerting me to my mis-spelling of "Buchon". Getting the prop blur right but retaining sharpness in the shot was quite tricky when shooting at a reach 400mm with a shutter speed of 1/250 or less!

I also have a shot of the Hurricane at a similar aspect as the Spitfire:

Second Hurri is far better IMHO, much more dynamic

Thanks for looking. Jeff's recent shots have also reminded me that I have a few more from Wings & Wheels that I could post!
