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.

Beautiful pictures, especially the air-to-air ones; they truly capture the atmosphere of the time when aircraft were made of wood and the men who flew them were made of steel (and not, as is thought by many today, the other way around :roll: )

Giel, your pics are very good!!!
Don't know for sure if you have gone digital, but my guess is you have done some Photoshop or similar editing stuff on those pics.
One point of critics, did you take a close look on some of your pics regarding the horizon??? I can be wrong, but some pics show the horizon not in a level way, but a left or right side higher than the other.

I did sharpen the pics and yes I have photoshoped them a bit (To make them brighter,...)
And about the horizon. It's possible! You really have to try to take pics from a plane flying behind you... It's not that easy :wink:
