PINNACLE 2,297 Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 I usually only post wildlife shots here but I thought there might be some people keen to see some planes. I had a fantastic time at Goodwood yesterday even though getting there through the traffic was a pain. Stood next to a chap who had a Tigermoth and he had a mate who had owned a Spitfire. He had some cracking photos taken with a go pro so the 2 hour wait went quickly. We even had a couple of incoming planes which we so low overhead I could not focus on as my lens was not wide enough. Dead on 2pm they started to take off and the smell and sounds of Merlin engines just filled the air and goose bumps a plenty. Here is just a small selection with a load more on my flickr site.
