Curtiss Kittyhawk

(Bigger here).

Arguably wrong on a number of levels - I dropped the ball on the prop blur, and the light was in entirely the wrong place, meaning a lot of PP heavy lifting to get the highlights tamed, the detail out of the shadows, and the sky looking good - but for all that, it's got a certain drama.

Looks much better at the bigger size.

Here are a few I took at Duxford recently. I felt the skies ruined nearly all my shots of the two Lancasters together. Have kept the shots to try to go back to one day, but I think they are beyond hope :(
If your Lancaster photos are in focus and reasonably well exposed, please please post them.
I've been hoping some of you 'over there' would get to shoot those two together, their reunion being of historical interest.
Photos of the pair don't need to be art in order to be historic and iconic.
