Theres a painting, which no doubt you’ve probably seen, and I think it might be by Woolsten, of a Lightning F6 taking off from a rain soaked runway. There was something about it that drew me to it and I realised it was the wet runway. For me, theres something about military aircraft and wet hard surfaces that has compelled me to get the perfect photo. Odd I know, but still one of the reasons I took up photography! Excellent…............Excellent painting mate.

Hi Mark
I don’t recognise the name Woolsten, (Could be Frank Wooton) but a Mark Postlewhaite, (not sure of spelling) has painted a lot of jets taking off.
The reason aviation artists paint WW2 planes in the wet is because they were painted in matt paint and don’t shine, (have reflections) unless the are wet.
