Isn't Photoshop a great product :PDT_Xtremez_15:

The spitfire photo is real, the aircraft was a Spitfire MkIXb G-ASJV (original RAF Serial was MH434) owned by the Old Flying Machine Company (OFMC) based at Duxford, it was flew under the bridge by the late Ray Hanna, and the photo was taken during the filming of the ITV series of Piece of Cake when Moggy Cattermole flies under the bridge in France. The still photo was taken by Herbie Knott who wasn't allowed on the riverbank, for safety reasons, hence the photo was shot with a fixed camera aimed at the bridge, on a tripod with a wide angle lens fitted and a long remote cable release to take the photo.

Thanks for the info. How do you remember all this stuff!

MH434 was in the original filename, but the rest is "good gen" :)
 
I also particularly liked this one as it was the road paved with gold all the way from Daharan to Bahrain for a night on the tiles, nice......................
