Here's what you don't usually get to see. I've got plenty more like these. Roll Eyes
All taken on the same day from the same location within about 30 minutes.

Hmmm, now where did he go? ???

Darn it, missed again. Roll Eyes

Don't think I'm cut out for this lark somehow. Maybe I'll call it a day & head for home.  Angry Cry

This is about the best I can expect from my little camera. It's a case of being in the right place at the right time & persevering. I almost gave up in disgust to go home in a bad mood. Can you imagine how I felt when my efforts paid off? Just think what Mr. Bones could have done in my place with his latest gear. Shocked

If I'd missed that shot I would have thrown my camera on the ground, jumped on it, gone home in a foul mood, put a big hammer through my PC & taken up something sensible like knitting. Roll Eyes Grin

Hi Paul. Shame I missed that one. Angry Didn't allow for the shutter delay & follow it through. It's a bad habit of mine. I almost gave up at that point & .............. see the above comment. LOL Wink Cheesy

PS. Richard Goode used to be the British aerobatic champion. I seem to remember he was sick every time he went up.
