New birds for 2026 😍 Thought I'd start off the New Year (running late as usual) with another rare shot!
One of Fred Olsen's Lockheed Electras making a very rare appearance on cross-wind Runway 23 at Heathrow. I still can't believe that these old birds were still flying into London well into the 1980s!
I remember well seeing all three of the Fred Olsen Electras at Heathrow, especially in the 1970s. I had forgotten though that they continued flying into the late 1980s - and this shot is from March 1985. It's the only time I remember seeing one fly over my house in Southall - very lucky that I was at home photographing that day 😍
The aircraft
To give the younger enthusiasts an idea of the sheer variety of aircraft to be seen at Heathrow in the 1980s, here is a list of the frames that I took that afternoon...
Frame 24 G-AWZR BA Trident 3
Frame 25 LN-FOH Fred Olsen Lockheed L-188A Electra (rare!)
Frame 26 HZ-AHD Saudia Lockheed L-1011-200 TriStar
Frame 27 A4O-HMQ Oman Royal Flight Douglas DC-8-73CF
Frame 28 garden flowers :)
Frame 29 N749WA Flying Tigers / Viasa Boeing 747-273C
Frame 30 N916R Icelandair Douglas DC-8-55F
Frame 31 G-BOAG BA Concorde (rare on 23!)
Frame 32 5Y-BBK Kenya Airways Boeing 707-351B
Frame 33 LN-MOW SAS Douglas DC-8-62
Frame 34 SE-DBG SAS Douglas DC-8-62 (second one!)
Frame 35 XV105 RAF Vickers VC-10 C.1
and that's just the ones I thought worth photographing 😂😃
The film
From around 1983-84 I largely stopped using Kodachrome slide film in favour of the cheaper option of colour print film of various brands and qualities! The quality doesn't compare very well with Kodachrome, but cash was tight in them there days 😅
On this occasion, I was using the fairly cheap Fuji HR-200 Fujicolour HR-200 film - I find the results quite grainy and with a slightly pale colour palette, but the film has pretty good reviews still - see below:
"One of the standout features of Fujifilm 200 is its vibrant yet natural color rendition. The film is known for producing rich, saturated colors without being overly exaggerated. At ISO 200, this film strikes a good balance between grain and sharpness. The grain is fine and unobtrusive, adding just enough texture to give images that quintessential film look without detracting from detail."

Who remembers posting off their films and getting a set of prints back a couple of weeks later - with an extra set of prints and a free film! At least I carried on capturing those memories for the archives...

Specks Hof liegt mitten in Leipzigs Zentrum und ist die älteste erhaltene Ladenpassage.Die Geschichte des Messe- und Handelshaus geht ungefähr bis in das Jahr 1430 zurück. Im Jahre 1815 erwarb der Kaufmann und Unternehmer Maximilian Speck von Sternburg das Haus und gab ihm seinen Namen. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg wurden die Dachaufbauten des Gebäudekomplexes stark beschädigt. Erst in den Jahren 1981 und 1982 wurde die historische Passage neu saniert und in den Jahren von 1993 bis 1995 restauriert.
Attraktion der 1995 wiedereröffneten Passage sind die drei Lichthöfe, die von den Malern Bruno Griesel, Moritz Götze und Johannes Grützke künstlerisch gestaltet wurden.
Specks Hof is located in the center of Leipzig and is the oldest preserved shopping arcade. The history of the trade fair and trading house dates back to about 1430. In 1815 the businessman and entrepreneur Maximilian Speck von Sternburg bought the house and gave it his name. During the Second World War, the roof structures of the building complex were badly damaged. Only in the years 1981 and 1982, the historic passage was redeveloped and restored in the years from 1993 to 1995.
The attraction of the passage reopened in 1995 is the three atriums, which were artistically designed by the painters Bruno Griesel, Moritz Götze and Johannes Grützke.
