RAF 100; Hawker Hurricane Print

RAF Hawker Hurricane

RAF Hawker Hurricane in RAF Battle of Britain 1940 colours. The 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain at the Biggin Hill Air Fair 2010, Biggin Hill Airport, Kent, UK. Aircraft during the Battle of Britain set piece. June 26, 2010. Photo: ©Edmond Terakopian

To celebrate 100 years of the Royal Air Force, I’ve put together a special priced print offer on one of my photographs.

The image is of a RAF Hawker Hurricane in Battle of Britain 1940 colours, during a 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain air display at the Biggin Hill Air Fair in 2010.

The sight of the fighter plane flying by rays of light as they create a break in the clouds brings special symbolism to the image, the plane and mostly to the heroism of the RAF during the Battle of Britain and WWII.

To view the image, available in colour and two variations of black and white, please visit the RAF 100 Battle Of Britain album.

The photograph was made whilst I was exploring Clapham Common, on my way to an exhibition opening nearby. Regular readers will know of my passion for street photography and documenting daily life. It always pays to explore and have a camera handy whilst doing so.

The image was shot on an Olympus OM-D E-M1 camera and a 25mm lens. The image was processed in Adobe’s Lightroom and the BW conversion finished in Alienskin Exposure X2.

Many congratulations to all the IPA 2017 winners and all whose work received an Honourable Mention. My thanks also to the jury who found my photograph interesting!
