Great shots, F-22 us a cracker. What post processing have you done, these look very vibrant, something I can never seem to get.

Thanks for posting these amazing shots. Got more? The demo team you didn't know who there were are the Red Arrows from GB.

Ta guys, PP is a little bit of shadow/highlight (dragging highlight slider to bring out detail in smoke trails and darken the sky), saturation boost if needed and then most of them have a bit of a gradient across them, usually a black/dark blue layer, with a gradient layer mask and then some of that mask touched up with a paintbrush to reveal the planes, and then the whole layer faded out to 30-60% opacity. Finally, 2 passes of USM first at about 10%, 40 radius which boosts contrast nicely, second at about 100%, 0.3 radius to crisp up edges. This is done on forum sized pics btw.

Yeah I know I don't think there's a single brit who doesn't well up with pride when they see the red arrows

Those were the pick of the bunch, I'll see if I have some more later and edit them in.

Awesome shots, you really were blessed with the weather.

I went to the arrivals on Thursday and got soaked in the morning. I was absolutely gutted when I found out that the Vulcan was arriving on Friday!

Ian.

Yep got lucky yesterday, better weather than today. You should have popped up at the weekend! You're only in wiltshire I must confess I wasn't actually in the enclosure, was in a nearby villages recreation ground where they had a 'park and view' for a fiver. We only live up the road so it was pretty handy just to pop down at 11 ish and miss all the traffic. Saw most of the important stuff but missed out on all the red arrows action at low level below the tree line and most of the propellor planes (apart from the battle of britain show) which were doing much tighter manouvres over the crowds.

Good shots. Refresh your mind on the "Share" areas IMAGE POSTING RULES. They only allow 2 attachments by the OP per thread, OR 8 embedded (linked) images, OR a combination of both totaling 8 per thread. (Maximum 1024 pixels on any side.) You can always just post a link to more, though, or better yet, post a link to a gallery so we don't have to click on each image link.
Some exceptions are group threads, like "Show Me...", "Post your best...", equipment reviews, Tutorials, etc.
You may add a few additional photos if requested, but only in a reply to other member's post and request.
