Behind The Lens

Location

Near Craigavon area hospital Portadown County Armagh Northern Ireland in recognition of the NHS staff during the Covid crisis. MH390 flew round |Britain paying tribute and raising funds. this is my tribute to that event.

Time

in September this event took place and lasted for about 5mins with a few passes from the aircraft before he headed on towards Armagh and the other hospitals.

Lighting

image was framed against reasonably clear sky's showing off the classic spitfire elliptical wing profile, and NHS paint scheme not quite making out the names of those hand stencilled on the underside of the aircraft who contributed to the fund raising or there friends spouses etc.

Equipment

canon camera sigma lens, handheld behind a hedge and fence.

Inspiration

The tribute that people pay towards big meaningful events, to help spur on the effort, raise moral and sacrifice of all those involved.

Editing

A little shadow reduction to increase the visibility of the message.

In my camera bag

spare lens different focal length, spare battery, spare camera if you have it.

Feedback

patience, planning and choose your settings there isn't a lot of time in these type of events
