Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

English Electri Lightning F.3 XR713/C - Bruntingthorpe

Post by FlyingmonsterFC »

Last month saw the Lightning Preservation Group's annual photoshoot with their three EE Lightnings - two F.6s XS904/BQ & XR728/JS F.3 XR713/C.

A few shots of the F.3 from the event...

These two have been processed to give a 'older' feel to them...

Excellent shots! The reenactment crew really makes it nearly perfect!! (too bad the engine covers are still on though...)
Bruntingthorpe is one of the places very high on my 'wish list'.

Last one looks very seventies indeed. Nice work.
What kind of filter did you use?
