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.

Post by Eric van Lisdonk »

Hi all,

I'm just returned from a 4 1/2 week spotting trip in the USA and Canada.
The first day of our trip started in Nellis, were we joined the Red Flag excercise.
More than 200 a/c could be noted in the rising sun with a temperature from more than 45. Here are some shots that i took during the mediaday overthere.
Have fun!!

Great shots Eric!
what lense did u use?

and regarding the Flanker; who would ever have thought that some design team would come up with with something that would make the F-15 look like a kid's toy.... love this bird (cancel the JSF and buy Flankers!!)

:picture: Check the EXIF you'll notice he used a Canon 40D, a 70-200mm f2.8 IS and (sometimes) an 1.4 x extender.

:picture: If you use Firefox, there is a nice plugin called 'Exif Viewer 1.45'. Right click on an image and you can see/read the EXIF info (if still present in the picture). A very useful tool.
Kind Regards,

Andries
