I went to Bletchley Park (home of the code breakers) with Daisy this weekend for an open day. the highlight of which was a fly past by one of the last remaining World War 2 Avro Lancaster Bombers. The moment was at once sobering and impressive. The noise from the engines intense and the gravity defying majesty of the plane sublime. We talk to easily of heroes, but the men who flew these planes truely deserve the description

Jon, CONGRATULATIONS on a personal best and a very dramatic photo! I get a sense of how noble and impressive that must have been being seeing that first hand. Those pilots were heroes indeed! What a wonderful capture of the moment!
this is a beautiful photo :) and I never deduct for those pesky dust-spots ;) I gave it a 10 and i'm very glad it hit your PB this time around! :) - its powerful, symmetrical, a perfect example of high contrast and I love it :)
Wow! I'm so happy for you! What an amazing score, a top 20 finish, a new PB, and a Fav. I'm sure this puts a big smile on your lovely face. Congratulations!
