        Beautiful shot Jan. And the grain doesn't bother me one bit.

Here's a shot from that general vicinity. Took it on a ramble SW of  
Soham, at Wicken Fen.

This is a fine example of what I tell students I've never said: "Gee,  
I wish I took that shot on cheaper film!"

It was during a phase of experimenting with the movie film packaged  
in 35mm canisters, probably from Seattle Filmworks. I sure wish I had  
done this on Kodachrome instead! The grain isn't too bad if you  
squint just the right way...

Do you ever fly out of Duxford? I used to fly gliders there. I recall  
one time when one of the Cambridge Sailplane Club members caused an  
incoming vintage B-17 being delivered to the Imperial War Museum to  
abort and circle. There was some interesting tower chatter on the  
radio after that one! But un-powered craft have right-of-way, even if  
the powered craft being diverted sucks 300 gallons an hour. :-)
