Okay… I’ve recieved some quesstions about this shot. I took this at an airshow earlier in the year. The announcer warned the crowed that the plane was going to do a high speed pass approaching the sound barrier to create the cone effect (which appears just before breaking the speed of sound). Yes… it was very difficult to focus and pan to get this shot. Luckily, I managed to keep it in the frame. My equipment: Canon EOS 5D with 100-400L zoom. Thanks for your comments.

Lancaster flies East at sunset “from an airfield, somewhere in England”, as they used to say during the war.

As the dawn breaks and the bombers leave the protective darkness of the night, “Crossing the Coast” is one of the most welcome intercom messages that returning bomber crews can hear after hours flying over enemy territory. / “Crossing the Coast” was inspired by a previous commission I’d painted called “Skipper, we are on fire!” These most feared words were quoted to me by John ‘Jock’ Morrison. / An ex-Sergeant wireless operator, he now lives in County Durham and returned to Norway in 2000, to collect his flying helmet from the grandchildren of the family who had looked after him and his fellow crewmen, when they crashed their Halifax bomber in Norway after depth charging the Tirpitz in April 1942. You may have read about his Norwegian visit in the newspapers. / “Crossing the Coast Skipper” has been used to illustrate the front cover of Tony Eaton’s book “Two Friends, Two Different Hells.” The story of two school-friend’s different wars. / Acrylic on canvas board 18×24 inches approx.

I Captured this image at the McChord Air Expo 2008. My father was a fighter pilot assigned to the 318th Fighter Interceptor Squadron at McChord AFB in the late 40s and early 50s. It’s kind of strange to see a Mig parked on the tarmac where he used to park his aircraft. The hanger looks the same though.

I couldn’t believe it, went for a country walk the other week and was wandering along the banks of Lake Windermere, I had my big zoom lens on my camera and was shooting some ducks just by the waterside and I heard this deafening roar, I turned to my left and this Typhoon came out of the Blue, I quickly put all the correct focus settings on my camera and whipped the camera up to the sky, focused and followed this beauty through the shot and snapped this one just has it was passing, ‘well done’ I said to myself, all of a sudden I was being woken up in bed by my good lady, ‘wake up, wake up you are gonna be late’..I was just having a fantastic dream, this really didn’t happen :-( LOL, Sounds like a good story though hehe, actually this is 2 shots in one, The Typhoon was shot at RAF Cosford against a white sky and the background is of Windermere in the lake district, applied a little motion blur to give that real speed effect too. / Pretty pleased with it meself..

Flying in a blue dream

(get the soundtrack) I have just posted some images from my latest adventures in a light aircraft over the sea and landscape of Wales. This is my first real attempt to get some decent pictures from aloft – I haven’t worked out how to use my usual landscape cameras (Mamiya RB67 etc) from an aircraft (yet!) so these were taken with a little Canon digital IXUS. My two pilot friends, who are kind enough to allow me to tag along, really want to just fly low, high, fast, between things, over things, under things (!), dodging seagulls, kites and hang-gliders, and generally tear about at a lot of strange angles doing impersonations of WWII fighter pilots. ‘What…you want to go up!!? (this said as we are doing 220 mph 50feet above the waves of Cardigan Bay) – I took a few ‘aerial’ photos looking up at people on the shore! / Er…..anyone remember how to start it? / Tail end Charlie………is that a thunderstorm? / Sweet!! ps. Does anyone know if there is an aerial photography group on RB?

Reworked commission. See Safe Return ‘42. below “This is a commission depicting the Safe Return of an unknown spitfire during the early summer of 1942. The commissioner requested “Moles” somewhere in the painting as he is a mole-catcher by profession. I’ve done a few alterations since last seen on RB (thanks to Bob Martin for crit) and I’ve given it a matt varnish finish which brings out the colours. / Acrylic on canvas board.”

Took this the other night, the sunset that is outside my house and the planes (lancasters) came from Cosford airshow, just mucking about here so I don’t expect much, though I like it, hope some of you do too… / /

B-52 Stratofortress in the high desert skies of California.

taken aboard the U.S.S. Middway in San Diego, Ca. / “Midway Magic” is a historical fact. It was a term known throughout the Navy as the USS Midway steamed through a 47-year career of service to country. Imagine a carrier that was commissioned in 1945 and served as a flagship in Desert Storm in 1991. No other carrier served as long as the USS Midway. /

I was asked if I would do a monotone version of my image “Polished alloy” / So, happy to oblige, here it is!

War Between The Worlds The noise, the deafening noise. / A battle rages to my north. / Armies of ships fall to my side, / weighing on my heart for those inside. / The metal torn and burned, the sound / of electricity courses through my veins. / Waves of terror surround me, while those / untouched and safe know nothing. / The coming of time, sets the pace for a new era. / Like beasts of armour they wheel fate, / determination to break through the barriers / that separate them from us. / The trumpets wail, and wings fall. / The masters reproach treads near. / The bow breaks and the floodgates of peril, / wash over us, drowning the luminating heat of despair / The finale draws near as I’m blinded by glorious light, stars fall from their designation, / The universe goes silent, the darkness, the nothingness, my mind slows, I fall…..
