Location
Taken from the Air Traffic Control Tower at RAF Waddington, Lincolnshire, UK.Time
It was taken mid-afternoon, just after a huge storm had passed. The aircraft is to the south, in the direction of the disappearing storm.Lighting
The lighting was all natural as the sun fleetingly popped out from between the heavy clouds.Equipment
Canon 1D MKIV and a Canon 400mm F2.8 prime lens, hand-held.Inspiration
I have taken aviation images since before I joined the RAF, always having a camera to hand, whether in the air or on the ground.Editing
A little bit of contrast and sharpening added, nothing else much really.In my camera bag
Depends greatly upon where I am. Sometimes only my iPhone XS Max!Feedback
To get 'the shot' you have to take lots and pick the best one. However, the best image is seen in your viewfinder by our eyes and it is a dynamic fast-moving item, you've missed the best shot..
