Magnificant Spitfire photographs

This has just appeared in the UK Daily Telegraph, with some of the best air-to-air shots of Spitfires I have seen:

The titles "Photographer captures pin-sharp images of the final 55 airworthy Spitfires using just a handheld camera" does seem a little naïve, though, as it makes it sound like he used a point-and-shoot while it is obviously a professional camera.

marvelous technical skill in conjunction with the most beautiful aircraft ever made - all down to Mr. Mitchell, who sacrificed his health to design and build it.

Actually the ME-109F has it beat in both looks and firepower.

Great photos, I wish my dad had been able to see these. He flew spits between 1943 and 1945. He was a native born American but was an officer pilot with the RCAF. He flew bomber escort and made bombing runs in France taking out rocket installations.

Truly spectacular photography, best I've ever seen of aircraft in flight! The captions that accompanied the photos were also very interesting to read. Thanks for the post.
