DH Mosquito

In formation with the DH Mosquito are a Supermarine Tr.9 Spitfire, North American P-51D Mustang, and a Curtiss P-40N-1 Kittyhawk. The photo was taken in the Hauraki Gulf near Auckland. It was taken just to get a shot with the fighters before the Mosquito left New Zealand for American based collector, Jerry Yagen. Camera was a 1DX, lens was a Canon 24-105L lens, shutter speed was 1/200 which s higher than normal but it is difficult taking photos at 200 knots with the canopy open on a North American T-28 Trojan.
