Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

I can't figure this one out. A Chinook with wheels in the wet sand as it looks, but tied down and covered for a stay (overnight?). Are there mooring points on the Vliehors? Do large helos actually stay longer? How about the tide?

Puzzled...

That was the main reason of the original topic, "be selective and critical" to your own shots, by study the pics you can learn many new things :wink:

English translation below.....

Hi Jimmy,

Op dit messageboard heb ik al eerder foto's van je gezien, en ik heb gemerkt dat je heel enthousiast bent. Het is echt leuk om te zien hoeveel punten ik in jou herken van toen ik zelf jouw leeftijd had.

Ik weet zeker dat je super blij bent met de resultaten, vooral omdat je het zelf allemaal hebt meegemaakt. De RIAT is en blijft natuurlijk een verzameling van mega veel vette kisten. Maar een gave ervaring en groot enthousiasme maakt vaak ook dat mensen de objectiviteit een beetje uit oog verliezen. De persoonlijke herinneringen maken dat men de resultaten allemaal nét even mooier beleeft dan ze voor anderen zijn.

De kunst is nu om te zien wat er niét goed is aan je foto, in plaats van weer weg te dromen bij de mooie herinnering. Kijk bijvoorbeeld maar eens naar de tientallen dagjesmensen onder de neus van de B-52, of de touwen en de hekken rondom de F-117. Heel veel dagjesmensen zullen hetzelfde plaatje hebben geschoten als jij, en dat maakt dat jouw plaatjes voor andere fotografen weinig bijzonders toont.

Mijn advies aan jou is om vooral lekker door te gaan met je hobby, en te genieten van wat je allemaal voor je lens krijgt. Als je daarnaast bewust probeert om mooiere foto's te maken dan andere fotografen, dan weet ik zeker dat mensen met plezier naar je foto's blijven kijken.

Succes met platen,
Iwan


Hi Jimmy,

I have seen your photos on this messageboard before, and noticed that you are a very enthusiastic bloke. It is really nice to recognize things in you from the time when I had your age.

I am very sure that you are super happy with your results, especially since you have experienced all aspects around it yourself. After all RIAT is a great collection of mega cool aircraft. But a fantastic experience and great enthusiasm make people loose objectivity when it comes to their own photos. Personal memories make that people review their work just a little bit better than they are to others.

Therefore the art is to see what’s nót good about your photo instead of getting carried away in your memories again. For example, look at the dozens of people below the nose of the B-52, or the robes and fences around the F-117. Many tourists will have shot the same photo as you did, and that makes that your images don’t impress other photographers as much as you would like.

My main advice to you is to continue your hobby, and enjoy all the great aircraft that you get to see through your camera. If you set your goal to make better photos from them than other photographers do, I’m sure other people will keep enjoying your work.

Good luck,
Iwan

Beste Iwan en andere Scramble-ers,

Ik waardeer het echt dat je dit bericht hier plaatst en heb er echt respect voor.
Ik snap dat niet iedereen blij met mijn hoeveelheden berichten en wat er wel en niet van klopt.
Spotten is mijn lust en mijn leven ( jammer dat er nog zoiets is als school :lol: )
maar even serieus, spotten is mijn grote hobby die niet altijd iedereen serieus neemt zoals op school.
Ik trek me er niets van aan.
Daarom moet ik mijn spottersleven veel voor me zelf houden heb weinig mensen om erover te praten mijn ouders en grootouders vinden het wel mooi maar weten er weer niet veel van af.
Darom post ik hier ook zoveel berichten, zodra ik een condensstreep in de lucht zie die ik niet ken post ik een bericht in het wie wat waar vliegt daar forum.
Ik zal me voortaan meer proberen in te houden, en snap wat je met je bericht bedoeld, het spotten en fotograferen gaat natuurlijk gewoon door ook bij mij :wink:

Met vriendelijke groeten,

Jimmy van Drunen

I know it is like this, but don't give a f*ck about that, sorry for my language. Being a photographer is a lonely existing; sow we know what youre talking about :wink:
