Fujifilm X-T2, Fujinon XF 10-24mm f4 R OIS at 22mm, 6s, f8, ISO 400
A few weeks ago I took part in a night photo shoot at Newark Air Museum (in Nottinghamshire, not New Jersey) and this is my favourite image from the evening…
XM594 was delivered to the Royal Air Force on 9 July 1963, entering service with 27 Squadron as part of RAF Scampton’s Blue Steel Wing (Blue Steel was an air-launched, rocket-propelled nuclear armed standoff missile, built to arm the V-bomber force).
XM594 made its final flight on 7 February 1983, to the former RAF Winthorpe, home of the Newark Air Museum.

Ullswater, 1995
Another image from 1995 for today’s ‘Slide Film Sunday’.
This trip to the Lake District was only a few days after the weekend at Santa Pod but much more than that I can’t tell you… I do remember standing in the lake with my tripod and also how cold the water was!
