Welcome
So, welcome to my Aviation Images Blog and welcome to my new site which has arisen from a passion for aircraft and photography stemming from 30 years service in the RAF. I use Canon equipment, currently an EOS-7D backed up with an EOS40D and utilising Canon EF L Series lenses. Some may be surprised to learn that I also still shoot slide Film using my trusty EOS650 – some habits just don’t die. In this blog you will see many of my images from the north of Scotland and various road trips that I undertake around the UK in pursuit of my hobby;
I continue to be a staunch supporter of the Royal Air Force Charitable Trust and have been a RIAT volunteer for over 25 years now which satisfies my desire to work around aircraft with aviation minded professionals whilst allowing me to be in some privileged positions for photography. Please leave any comments as you feel fit and I sincerely hope that you enjoy my work.”
I have a second website where you can view my non aviation related images http://3adimages.wordpress.com/about/

“That’s me on the right with my pal Tom Gibbons, the image was taken by another pal, Lindsay Peacock at RIAT 2009 and catches me and Tom in a light hearted moment on departure day following a successful show weekend.
And above that a couple more of me on a trip I made to the USA in October 2009 with my pal Paul Ashenden (aka PASH)
And a recent couple from Tom Sunley at the 2010 Kinloss Families day
