Was down at the airshow today, very very poor show I must say, was bored silly and didnt even waste my time shooting the single engine crap planes so not pics. Though the euro fighter was excellent, apart from it being about a mile out to sea!! Anyways grabbed a few shots of these guys dressed up

Those shots are particularly effective Connor, very moody and atmospheric!

The b&w/sepia images are fantastic Conor, very effective and generating that dated look for the WW2 scenes, love the detail in the clothing. Love the shot of the guy with the ciggeratte - straight from 'Saving Private Ryan'  Smiley

Airshow was rubbish wasn't it, don't like those single engine propellor planes, however the Eurofighter was amazing and I enjoyed the WW2 scenes at the stalls.  Smiley
