At last some sun and some warmth! Having frozen at the recent Donington Historic Car Racing Festival it was a pleasant change to have a great day at the Derwent Dams to capture the Lancaster flying over to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the famous Dambusters raid on the 16/17 May 1943. A stirring sight seeing the Lanc swoop on low over the water and between the twin towers used as practice in the run up to the actual event. Glad to say one of my shots will be featuring on the front cover of one of the local mags. On the same evening Chesterfield Photographic Society visited Heage windmill for an evening shoot and with a thunderstorm clearing in the distance we ended up with some dramatic skies and eventually some beautiful soft evening light as the sun set over Crish stand.
Andy and I are taking advantage of the bank holiday and departing briefly for foreign parts, Andy and Julie are off to Budapest and Helen and I are off to Rome for short breaks - cameras at the ready!
