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 have converted this image to black and white and darkened it a little in order to create the atmosphere of the period which would have been about 1943. Most of the Lancaster’s raids were carried out at night, and this shot depicts flying under moonlight. This was unwelcomed by the bomber crews as it made them highly visible to enemy night fighters.

Sold as a mounted print November 2008 / 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… / /

” Never, in the field of human conflict, was so much owed, by so many, to so few.” Winston Churchill, 20 August 1940, at the height of the Battle of Britain. We had the pleasure of these Historic aircraft, Lancaster Bomber, Hurricane, and Spitfire, at the Dawlish Air Show, 14/08/08. / The roar of 6 Rolls Royce Merlin Engines made the hair on your neck stand up.

These beautiful lupines were growing inside of the Antelope Valley Poppy Reserve. I was hiking in from the side and saw them silhouetted against the orange glow of poppies in the valley below. It made for a dramatic contrast. – Spring 2008 Nikon D200, Nikkor 18-200 VR lens

The Duke of Lancaster during her last season in Sealink service. Capt Evans’ views of the ‘Dukes’ are echoed by Capt John Bakewell. “I was in command of the Duke of Lancaster for only a few weeks when she was loaned to us in Holyhead. Backing out of Holyhead was fine as she steered beautifully with her bow rudder. However when proceeding ahead she was terrible to steer. The rudder didn’t look much bigger than a dinner plate!! Sailing into Holyhead, one had to put the rudder hard over somewhere by the North Stack in order to get her round the breakwater!! Then getting her into the Inner Harbour caused many a grey hair!!” I think he must have crashed into the rocks as it’s been here since. / Taken with my D300 Sigma 10-20 lens HDR and NX2 processed

Taken with a Canon 50D, Tamron 90mm lens, F8, shutter speed 1/100 second ISO1000, edited in Photoshop I paid a visit to the wonderful butterfly house in Williamson Park in Lancaster today, a bit too much noise in the shot for my liking because I had to use a high ISO because as usual it was a gloomy, wet summers day in Blighty!! The butterfly house in Williamson Park have live exotic butterflies fluttering and feeding amidst the flowers, trees and vines in the tropical rain forest housed in the former Palm House. Walk amongst some of the world’s most beautiful species, including brilliant swallowtails, and cleverly camouflaged Owl butterflies within a natural habitat. The pupae of new butterflies can be seen in a special display case and you may even see a butterfly emerging from its chrysalis! In the stream that flows around the forest you will also find a variety of lively fish. Please view large

This is a shot of the Lancaster Bomber as it approaches Eastbourne Airshow. / I took this from Beachy Head so I am looking down on the aircraft with the sea below it which gives it a very different perspective.
