VARIOUS CONINGSBY 31ST JANUARY

[Last Lightning]

Spent the day at Coningsby with a few mates. Started the day with a tour of the BBMF then the rest of the day bimbling around in various spots.

I will try not to bore you all with too many shots of Typhoons, infact i'm not going to...just the one tiffy shot

First off our guide around the BBMF

Now don't be mean to my east flight Followed it a few times to Marham
That is a stunning picture, as is the Tornado

I love this time of year, the sunsets at the 07 end are epic
I havn't seen any myself this year though

[Mayfly]

Very nice LL! what kit do you use?

[Thumper]

They are some rather lovely photo's there!

Perhaps you wouldn't mind, as Mayfly says, letting us know what kit you use and what settings you used to take the shots?

No meanness intended so long as good photo opportunities are provided

As for the rest of you asking what gear and settings I use
Canon EOS50D
Canon 30-300mm lens (black)

Settings various P,TV,AV, sometimes even auto but always shooting RAW

Thing is its a new camera that I have only had for a month so i'm still playing until I get a good set up.......

hope this helps

Sorry to be a pest but Canon don't do a 30-300mm. Is it a Tamron or Sigma 28-300mm?

Just interested as the photo's are amazingly sharp!

[Mayfly]
