This really low-level shot is a great view of the new buildings at Heston, providing all mod-cons for the airpark. Aerofilms Ltd would perhaps have looked like a really up-to-the-minute enterprise; technology, flight, modernism and excitement personified in the crisp white lines of the buildings and the smell of photographic developer and aircraft fuel. |

Title Heston Air Park, Heston, from the south-west, 1930 Image reference EPW031397. Is that the photographers eye looking back at us? It`s spooky, but probably just a trick of the light. |

Hi petet, I think it's most likely marks left by some poorly-executed processing of the glass plate. There are other examples of water marks and other liquids on some of the plates, as well as damage caused by a variety of problems that our Conservation Team deals with. Yours, Katy Britain from Above Cataloguing Team Leader |
