Behind The Lens
Location
This was taken at the annual Royal International Air Tattoo held at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire.Time
It was taken in the afternoon, the sun was out and only a few scattered clouds.Lighting
With the sun out and behind me it was perfect for taking photos of this classic jet.Equipment
Canon 40D and a Canon 100 - 400 mm / F 4,5 - 5,6 EF L IS USM Lens.Inspiration
Could not pass up the opportunity to photograph such a classic.Editing
Edited in Lightroom, using a lens blur tool to give a foggy surrounding to the photo.In my camera bag
Every outing i carry a Canon 40D with a Canon 100 - 400 mm / F 4,5 - 5,6 EF L IS USM Lens on. And a Canon 600D with a basic Canon 18-55 lens.Feedback
I have been to a few air shows over the years and find it very challenging to shoot outside especially with the typical UK summer weather. At Fairford if the sun gets out it's behind you which is perfect for taking pictures as it lights your subject very well.
