Some of the photos I have taken of Wildlife and Aviation etc.
This weeks Aviation composite is the Royal Navy Historic Flight’s Sea Fury pictured over the Medway. This one was quite hard as the background photo was taken in 2002 with a very small digital instant camera through perspex while still flying the aircraft:-)
The aircraft featured is the Hawker Sea Fury T Mk 20 VX281 120.

Blenheim Mk1 L6739 YP-Q. This photo composite shows the Blenheim based at Duxford. In the near future it is hoped that she will be able to take passengers up for a flight. Looking forward to it!
Another photo for the aviation lovers, This is the Catalina PBY ‘Miss Pick Up’ based at Duxford ‘flying over the needles’.

Well it has been a long time coming, because I decided to go to the full Photoshop editing program half way through doing this photo, which meant re-learning how to edit. I think it was worth it. Here is “A lull in the fighting”.
Another museum that we visited a couple of weekends ago was the Norfolk and Suffolk Aviation Museum. What a gem! Free to get in, just a donation requested. Packed to the gills with aircraft and aviation items as well as a few vehicles. Well worth the visit.
What a great day last weekend. This is my first visit to the Brooklands Museum since 1986, boy has it changed! Here are some photos of the military vehicles and the museum’s exhibits.
Well, after a several weeks of playing and tweaking until I am happy with it, here is my latest piece of artwork. Hope you enjoy it.
I call this piece, ‘In The Zone’. It is based on the statement I heard once. It was “A display pilot should always remove all distractions from his mind before performing his display.”
For those who not only died, but also those who ‘survived’ the war that would end all wars. Thank you! We WILL remember you.

We had a great day out at the Gatwick Aviation Museum today. They were running up the engines on their Shackleton Maritime Reconnaissance aircraft.
