[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is dredged from my archives from 1982 (I think). This was taken at RAF Finningley with my old Pentax MX at an air show there. Apologies for the poor quality of the photo because it is a photo of a photo of an 8 x 10 print that I took way back then with my 300MM Makinon lens with a X3 teleconvertor (900mm!). I was really pleased with this at the time, somewhere I have the negative but have not found it yet. The print has faded somewhat so I have enhanced the colours a bit in PS. The two aircraft were travelling at around 425 knots each so I was quite pleased to get at least one of them reasonably sharp. Comments and critiques welcomed. Regards, Les

HI Dad,

It is an old one but a good one. I remeber this from my youth, great timing and I like the aged apperance too.

Cheers
Tom

Great shot, I aways liked this one and I remember you being very proud of it when you took it! You need to find the negative and get a new print made, the yellowing on this one really detracts from it. Still good though.
Cheers, John.
