Superb shots, particulalrly the first one.
What's the deal with the chap inside the chute canopy? We never packed them like that in my day. Or did he just forget his sleeping bag?

That looks like a massive camp - considering those tents house at least six people comfortably, and there's about 40 small tents, I'd guess over 200 staff taking part? That's a large exercise.

Great photos guys.
I like how you managed to capture the seagulls in that first shot, Colin: I thought you were a duck man myself. ;D
