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.

The horizon is tilting to the right in the aviation movements world. But I like a lot of these shots, especially the Indians (because of your compostions).

Thanks for the compliments Eric,

I know some pictures are not leveled at the moment, still have to do some photshopping but as I have not much time this period and don't want to share them too late, I accept that they are not leveled completly for now.

regards
Dennis

Hiya Dennis,

First i'd like to state that it's refreshing to see a topic with photo-highlights. (not just 30+ pics from one airport...)

Was wondering if the 'close-up' photos have been cropped that way (wings / props cut off) or photographed that way ?

Thanks Chris,

It are indeed highlights only, as I made more than 900 pictures in 3 days. The only ones that are heavily cropped are the Rafale's. F-15C for example is original and was parked right in front of me (about 3 or 4 meters). All other pictures are cropped as well but minimal 90%.

regards
Dennis

Like the closeups, and thanks for the info in the other topic about the ILA, it helped getting there early. My own shots are in another topic (ILA Berlin 2008).
