I REALLY like the first one, the texture of the smoke clouds is awesome, and the fact the highlights are blown due to the reflection on the cockpits adds something to the pic too
Iain, that first pic is a real beaut, a great action shot, well done mate.
Nice pics. Hope to see the rest

I really like the coloring of the images.
Nicely done, particularly the first pic - what kit are you using? Exif data would be great too!
John
Think I took about 600 just of the Red Arrows alone, got some of the Vulcan, Airbus 380, Battle of Britain Aircraft and some others.
Will look through them as and when and post up.
Keep your eyes peeled.
Oh, thanks for all the comments guys.

Get the one of the Vulcan up, they have been restoring that for ages.:thumbsup:
Should of read page 2 before placing my last comment:(
Very nice mate, love the first shot, and that Vulcan - Stunning. :D
Nice!
What day did you go? I was there on the Sunday but to be honest the weather was really crap to start with. Of course all the fast jets were out first so I was left with uninspiring grey skies as a back drop :(
Come later in the afternoon and the clouds broke quite nicely.
I thought "The Blades" and the Yak-50 displays were brilliant:

But the star of the show HAD to be the Vulcan:

I was there on the sunday too!
Great to see the Vulcan up and flying, have seen you have some good shots on another thread. Loved your one of the arrows flying over the control tower.
Ended up buying swmbo a red arrows fleece for £45 as she was cold lol, I was there in t-shirt and shorts:D
Poignant day for me as it was the first time I had been back to farnborough since I finished my apprenticeship there.
Sad to see all the old hangers pulled down and replaced with office blocks:(
Looking at that photo of the red arrow coming in to land, you must of been up the far end towards where the A380 was on stand?
Absolutely love your shot of the Para's linked up. I was so far down he runway I didn't see half of that :(
It was a great day though. I was absolutely amazed at how well organised the whole thing was, to the extent that I wondered if I was still in the UK LOL!
