WW1 - Fokker Dr1

Day’s End

A section of Fokker Dr1 ‘Triplanes’ recover to a rough field behind the German lines in 1917 - the last of the light is going and emphasises the dominance of Vimy ridge in the background. A sensational improvement in the German air arm when the Dr1 came into service, highly manoeuvrable and with two machine guns firing through the prop arc, it swept the RFC from the skies for a short, but bloody, period. It quickly became the norm for the German pilots to adopt various, and sometimes quite garish, colour schemes although the example in the foreground is quite restrained. The third aircraft sports a typical livery with strong blue wing surfaces and bright red engine cowl - even so it limps home trailing a grey smoke trail.

The aircraft seen in the image are all replicas as the last genuine WW1 example was lost during a bombing raid on Berlin during WW2 - some degree of irony there! .

Have been interested in photography since just after WW2, when film became freely available again, using Kodak Autographic equipment. Graduated, in the 50's, to 35mm and was involved in photographic work during my 17 yrs as RAF aircrew - navigator. Since retirement and migrating to Canon digital equipment have been involved with two of my sons and one grandson in a considerable amount of photographic activity, particularly composite images. Now producing digital art prints with the major emphasis on classic warbird aviation. With son, Duncan, now becoming a well-known and published wild life photographer we have started, in 2017, a new gallery reflecting Scottish sea birds - and 'feathered' flight
