Wing Walking

Look ma, no hands

I've fallen out of love a bit with photography recently. Usually by this time in the year I have at least fifteen to twenty "shoots" under my belt. This year I'm not even close to double figures. I've kind of lost my mojo. But, a couple of weeks back, my daughter and family invited me out to the former RAF Wickenby. It's only around eight miles from where I live, but I had never been before.

The pilot

What I didn't know is they hold different events on the old airfield, the old control tower is now a cafe and small museum, so it promised to be a nice day out. Especially as on that day The Wing Walk Company had flown in.

In the clouds

Whilst it made for an interesting spectacle to watch and photograph, I couldn't but think that the people actually wing walking must either be incredibly brave or unbelievably stupid. It wasn't cheap (almost £500 - around $640) for the participants but even if they had paid me there is no way I could have done that. So kudos to those that did.

Fly by
We couldn't have really picked a better day for it, the weather was lovely and the sky very blue behind the clouds, making this particular aircraft really stand out. A lovely day out, and I did almost get excited about shooting again. And, very strange for current tines, it was free to spectate.

About me:

I can mostly be found shooting models, aviation, motorsports and, when I can, wildlife. But I enjoy most aspects of photography. You can find more of my work on the links below.
