WarPig, hubby said I should have taken my tripod - lol can you imagine the damage done by the cannon fire if I had! the ground absolutely rocked with the force!!!!!

Yes, the bangs were impressive.

I wasnt quick enough to snap the Red Arows, but I did manage to get this photo of three wanna-be pilots assuming an arrow head formation. Red Two on the right is slightly ahead of the ideal position, but still, a sterling effort...

I heard the announcer say "here are the red arrows" so I swung the camera round and started snapping as I followed them, the photo after this one has a womans hair in the frame as I hit her on the head with the lens, sorry lady :blush:

hi new here (first post)

live in chesterfield and have never heard of the sheffield fayre before, but managed to get there this year by chance, it is brilliant! Didn't have a load of time and this is not really my normal photography thing (mainly landscapes) so just got as many as i could and hoped for the best :) picked out the best 10% and stuck on flickr

flickr.com/photos/alpharich/sets/72157622100711043/

not finished processing yet, hope to do a set with just mono.

Have all ready booked the day of work for next year and hope to be dropping into this forum as well.
