Military Vehicles (Air, Land and Sea)

Absolutely great capture! Had one flight in a Buccaneer - loved it! The lighting works perfectly and being able to blend multiple images together has worked nicely to create a unique image. The saturation works well to highlight it from the gloomy backdrop.

Really like the sense of movement in this image due to the prop blur and setting it slightly off-centre. The panning has worked nicely and as it is a Mk19 recce blue version, it blends in nicely with the sky.

The faded saturation works well in this image to give it a dated feel. Having the jeep off centre is a nice touch as it allows the viewer to see the building behind go give a vintage look to the image.

You give a great sense of power in this image, the vapour and streamers showing the force being pulled around the corner in the valley. It is also nice and clearly focussed, which adds to making it pop out of the image.

Leaving space to the right of the image for the Spitfire to move into is a nice touch here and it gives the viewer a sense of movement. The prop blur is also well captured to enhance the image feeling of movement.

A nice split-second capture that catches the Dakota and Lancaster perfectly aligned. A slightly slower shutter speed wound have resulted in a bit of prop blur, but may not have resulted in as crisp a focus for the final image.

Off-centre works nicely in this image as it gives that Apache space to move into, although it appears to be slightly banking away from the open space. A faster shutter speed would have allowed a bit of rotor blur as well.

The muted tones work nicely in this image to add a vintage look to the Delta Lady and the cloudscape as well. The only thing that I would have changed would be to erase the left main wheels to give the illusion that she was in flight and had not just launched.

The grainy black and white image really makes this shot stand out as something that may have been seen in a vintage poster to advertise an airshow. The space on the right gives a feeling of the playground they have to use for their display.

A great capture that leaves a nice plank area for the F-35 to move into, giving a further sense of speed and dynamics. Possibly changing the background to be all the same shade of blue would have enhanced it a bit further.

A nice action shot showing the helicopter at work. A slightly slower shutter speed would have given some blur to the rotors to improve a sense of movement. There is always someone, during a role demo or reenactment, who just stares at the helicopter instead of playing 'attack'. :)

A really powerful image with the dark clouds behind the A-10, reflecting the damage that I have seen these bring in Afghanistan. It is formidable beast and you have captures it well. Moving sightly higher with your lens would result in the canopy being clearer.

The balance is nicely done in the cropping of this image, which allows balance. Slightly oversaturated. My wife was their Station Commander for 2 years so I know how difficult, from experience, it is to capture the Red Arrows 'a bit' differently' but you have done well here.

Despite being in a museum, I love the notion that this aircraft still has the opportunity to 'fly' here. The perspective works well, drawing the viewers eye in to see the other aircraft as well. A nicely composed image that is commended.

This was the plastic model that my son and I built during lockdown - my first build in 25 years! It is an amazing aircraft and you have caught it as a great angle. The prop-blur adds to the sense of it being alive.
