They never cease to amaze me Richard (apparently they were over in Kent the other week – or so my dad was telling me).

Lensman2008
Well captured and composed.
I have shots of the Red Arrows, but all on film and I don’t own a scanner….yet.
I’m after a Nikon scanner (those Epson machines just don’t cut the mustard.) so I just have to keep on dreaming.
I’m pleased to say that I have perfected the technique of capturing their ‘Kiss of Death’ manoeuvre with both planes in shot close together. It takes split second timing, but I have the shots to prove it.
Richard Veal replied
Well, hurray up and get your scanner. LOL
I shall look forward to seeing them.
PS. I have an Epson. :-))
Stephen Thomas
