RAF Museum Hendon (28-10-12) pic heavy

Jimbuna · 10-29-12, 02:44 PM

Went to Hendon yesterday with three friends and despite the 560 mile round trip it was a memorable day and a lot of fun.

As those of you who have previously visited will know, the lighting conditions in some areas make photography a challenge but I done my best with what limited photography skills I have.

Yeah, it's pretty dark in the main hanger, isn't it?

Still, the WW1 shed is nice and bright..

Looks like you were there on a busy day. We went last year on a bright, crisp December morning and almost had the place to ourselves all day.

Yeah it was quite busy so I decided not to use my tripod which would have helped me overcome the poor lighting conditions.

My books are usually borrowed from the library, or bought from charity shops, this was a rare by it of Ebay occasion. At the price I paid I'm more that happy to simply post it on to you after I've read it.

Flying Freestyle you'll have to sort for yourself.

Look Holmes!!! All these picutres of aeroplanes, its the work of the "Mad Photographer"!! We must put a stop to this at once, but who is he?

Elementary ,my dear Watson! Its a northener! More specifically , he's from Newcastle! You can see that by the way he holds his camera! We'll board the first train for Newcastle in the morning. Come Watson, the games afoot!!

Northeners, Newcastle you say Holmes!?! Right, I'll get my revolver, those northeners can be a bit daft at times!

It's a good effect you've achieved, but I still want to go.

Got to go back to that Sunderland, there's a pic the wife wants to get. At one point there's a sign marked "Mind your head"...the problem is, the wife is so short that she doesn't actually need to duck.

She wants to get a picture of her standing under that sign.
