I took this last October at Sywell Aerodrome. To my knowledge it was the last, or one of the last, flights of the Vulcan last year.

Very impressive, both the Vulcan and the image. I thought it was mono from the thumbnail - I like the pin points of red.

A cracking plane well captured.
Were you tempted to rotate it a little?

Thanks Mike and Mike. I did wonder whether to rotate it, but as I remember it, this is how it was. I assume they were flying against a slight crosswind.

I used to see these Vulcan bombers at Machrahanish when I was a lad Nigel so the shot brings back memories, its also quite a capture with the planes stacked the way they are.
