    I took a shot of 92 Squadron using a lens attachment to my phone and an app filter at point of taking the photo. Does it count as a photograph?

    I love the odd athmospheric monochrome rendering but, in this case, I reckon in full colour .... boy would Simon's shot make for a superb publicity poster. It's a composition* highly reminiscent of the sort of angles beloved of 'Big Four' era and captures the 'nature of the beast' beautifully.

    *composition: just one many reasons my own attempts invariably fail so miserably. :(

    Lucky I took one then! Can be cropped about to match the top image.

    Pity there's no awestruck 5 year old alongside the cab, but that's the one alright. If 34081 were my baby, I'd be thinking in terms of that image for the top-left corner of official correspondence or overprinting on envelopes.

    Let it be known then, as long as I’m credited, they are very welcome to use any images I’ve put in this thread.
