Unfortunatley these days, with a set of shots of that quality the watermark is a necessary evil to prevent theft of the images. Nice set of shots, makes me feel very cold !!!

Re: Heathrow November 6th 2010

I'm assuming that was at Myrtle Avenue in which case you are very right about the light there. A motor drive sequence of shots from when they come into view to when they drop below the fence line reveals a very wide range of exposure and lighting. A favourite game of mine is get the light just right...

Re: Some "OUCH, that hurt" pics from my collection.
