Thanks click! most appreciated your very kind

Farnborough 2014

Spitfire and sky shot on the same day but not necessarily at the same time :cool:

I'm not sure if this is considered a big no no cheat but I liked this view of the Spitfire as I don't care much for the trainer mark but the sky was really boring so I borrowed the sky from later one in the day.

I like this pic as it evokes for me a feeling of freedom in more than one wayIMG_0773.jpg

Hi bive.
Welcome to the forum, what a way to start, a brilliant series of shots and proof that even old gear can catch great shots in the right hands. I particularly like the shot of the Spitfire, but then I'm not really a jet person.
Where I work was overflown by a brace of Spitfire yesterday, and no long lens at hand. :(
Let's hope the 7DII gives you some great shots, but not sure how it will better these!

Cheers, Graham.

All photos are taken with a 20D, now I have a 7D mkII and it will be quite interesting to try it out at the airshow this year.
