RAF Coningsby Enthusiasts Day 15.06.12

[TYS1977]

Hi All,
Had a great day last Friday at Coningsby, First time I've ever been to one of these and hopefully not my last,
A massive thanks to all the team at CBY for making this such a great day and also a special mention to Ben Montgomery on FC for all his help,
Got to meet some folks from the forums, Unfortunately didn't catch up with some who I'd have very much liked to (Chris) Next time mate, I never thought I'd have sent you a PM the night before but was tear arsing round trying to get everything together

Hope you like them, CC very much appreciated, this is the first time I've togged using the new kit at a base/air display so I'd love some suggestions on how to improve,
Kindest regards
Mark

Brilliant dude

[TYS1977]

Cheers matey

Some really nice images Mark...
as for tips at bases etc

watch out for pylons/lights sticking out of the top of aircraft if you can avoid it
in most cases you can move a couple of yards either way and get rid of of them out of shot
failing that I clone them out

your image 26 is a real stunner bet you were pretty pleased when you first saw that one at home on the PC

it makes the images much cleaner

image 33 is an example of far too much clutter with the fallen down fence & ladders and general background clutter which make this image no where near as good as some of the others you have posted in this set

hopefully next time we have an event like this we can meet for a chin wag

Cheers Chris,
lol See what you mean about pylons and lights,
Really pleased with 26, It' been recieved quite well on some of the forums too

Thanks very much mate for taking the time for a bit of analysis on the shots as well,I know you do a lot of Airshows/Fly ins etc so your tips are really appreciated mate, Points noted for next time and yes we'll definitely have to try and meet up mate

Kindest regards
Mark
