Description
Well dunno if any of you guys remember, but I bought my first SLR camera back near the end of last year. I have only now been able to get the film developed, so the next few submissions will be scanned photos - I am quite happy with the quality.Here is a fighter jet practising around last november around the Cambrian Mountains in Mid Wales. I am actually quite happy with this shot - this was my first photo from the camera, and I am quite lucky to catch him... they go VERY fast!
Comments welcome!

Nice fluffy clouds! Looks like a Panavia Tornado jet because of those swept looking wings, and you are in England after all... nice shot, a little grainy but thats ok!

You know, there still are places where you can get arrested for making photos lilke these
Great capture ... the contrast between the sky and the clouds is very nice and the jet, well, it's almost as if it hangs in the air.

Seriously? You caught that with 400??? Wow. I would have guessed 800. Nice.

nice job mate! I've tried shots like this soooo many times, but failed badly. As you say they go damned fast!
Great shooting

It is a good shot - there's virtually no blurring of the jet - which is pretty impressive considering their speed. And there's a very good contrast between the sky and clouds - gotta love that blue/white combo.
The only criticism I would give is perhaps your scanner glass needs a clean or something as there appears to be quite a bit of debris picked up by it...

yeah, didn't think of that... I haven't used it in ages so I had better have a look. Cheers for the suggestion
