Christmas is not merely the season to be jolly and deck the halls with boughs of holly. For enthusiasts of aviation photography, 'tis also the season for night shoots. With light fading during the late afternoon at this time of year, it has become a tradition for museums and specialist organisations such as Threshold.aero to organise opportunities for photographers wishing to capture the distinctive ambience that dusk and nightfall bring. Sometimes, depending on circumstances, aero engines are fired up to provide a fiery or energy-driven contrast to the nocturnal conditions. On other occasions, costumed re-enactors are employed to bring period atmosphere to photographers' images. There are usually several such events throughout the country. Over the next few pages, we present some of the highlights sent to us during the 2021 season.
