A quick heads-up if you’re living in the north of England and love photography and old aircraft. This Saturday, I’ll be at the Yorkshire Air Museum for an evening photo shoot of some of the aircraft.
We’ll have with us a mountain of Elinchrom lighting kit from The Flash Centre, plus we’ve grabbed a Canon 5D Mk2 and the brand new Canon 7D to use. So if you have your camera, you’ll be able to mount the Skyport wireless trigger on your hotshoe and try out the Elinchrom lighting we’ll have set up.
For me, I’ll be saying hello to an old friend, the pretty Mirage jet fighter you see in the background of this shot. A couple of years ago, I used her as a backdrop for a car shoot, but this time, the sharp dart shape will be centre of attention for the Elinchrom lighting, lets hope we can do her justice.
The wonderful Victor tanker / bomber that lives there with have all it’s ground power and lighting hooked up, so you can get some great long exposures as the sun goes down. The museum have created a great schedule starting mid afternoon with some interesting talks by ex-Victor crews too, so it’s shaping up to be a great event. What we need now is a spectacular Yorkshire autumn sunset and we’ll have some great photography!
There are still tickets available, simply go to the website here and book, or give them a call.
