Title: Flying Legends 2018
Post by: JudgeDredd on August 15, 2018, 01:20:37 AM
I went to Flying Legends this year and unfortunately, because I'm not a photographer and I haven't taken the time to get to know my Nikon D40X, my pictures turned out pretty poor.

When I get round to it, I'll post some of the static images I took. The ones in flight didn't turn out very well...kind of dark and not very sharp...almost even out of focus.

Actually, I've just discovered I can adjust these images for light and various other attributes as they are in RAW format - so they might not be a total waste. I've got alot of pictures to go through though so it may be some time before I get round to posting them.

Here's the original 3 guys with the (slightly) edited version below

Its amazing what that F35 is capable of in terms of avionics and sensors...especially compared to those two old workhorses.

Plainly Plane abusive. So plain it shouldn't be Germain to the conversation. Glad it didn't rain, that would've been a pain.  :clap:
