I was in Normandy for the 25th.
Well done re the photos - pity the light didn't play ball
Very grey day here Ian.
I had to go a bit further east than I wanted to, too many trees and nowhere to park, and ended up shooting back towards the sun - good job it was behind the many, many clouds which diffused the ligh5 a bit.
Not perfect, but today was about recording the moment, not getting fine art prints.

All that matters is that you have a permanent record of seeing them.

True Brian, and occasionally I get it right as well.

Was it just me or did anyone else find watching them land therapeutic and almost mesmerising. They looked so majestic, beautiful to watch.

You're not the only one, Mr B. They were amazing.
