www.aviationphoto.co.uk showcases the Airshow Photography of Andrew Critchell LRPS.  A Licentiate of the Royal Photographic Society in Great Britain, Andrew photographs airshows for Flypast magazine in the UK, and has been published regularly in the UK and Europe since starting professionally as a freelance airshow photographer in 2001.  This site contains a comprehensive selection of airshow photographs taken at airshows and events between 2001 and the present, with a selection of Andrew's best images displayed in a portfolio of airshow photography.  Click on any of the thumbnails to view full size images.


Equipment used - Prior to 2004 all images were taken on either a Minolta Dynax 7 or 505Si Super 35mm SLR camera body with a 400mm f5.6 lens or a 70-300mm f4.5/5.6 telephoto zoom lens.  Film stock used was generally Fuji Sensia 100 ASA colour transparancy.  From 2004 to 2006 all images have been captured digitally on a Nikon D70 with a 135-400mm f4.5/5.6 telephoto zoom lens.  From 2007 Andrew upgraded to a Nikon D200 body to benefit from improved autofocus, faster frames per second capability, the ability to shoot a lot more images before the memory buffer is full, and of course a boost in image capture from the 6 megapixels of the D70 to the 10.2 megapixels of the D200.
