Belgian Airforce Hercules C130 through the Bwlch Pass , Machloop UK 10/4/14

First ever trip to the Machloop so was very much in the dark as to what to expect, ended up in an area called Bwlch on a Mountain side. Unfortunately it was only the one plane that came through on the day. By no means a perfect shot but happy all considered as I'm more used to some nice Landscape and Waterfalls!

Late in the day after the light had faded, I could really have done with night vision goggles! ISO 1250, 125th at f4 gives an idea of just how awful the light was!
