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.

Thanks guys, thanks a lot! :toppie: :scramble: But something else now, is it normal that pics uploaded on Flickr, showing lack of sharpness/quality, when i use the grab code in the topics here on scramble? i seriously see a loss of it, looking at my original pictures.....

By the way Tom, can´t find your Mig image posted here in one of the topics, but a great on it is, just like the images on ATI :toppie: :scramble:

Nikon rules Menno!
Were the photos taken with your 300 F4, with a teleconverter or with another lens?

Hi Menno,
Now I look at your pics on my 27inch mac.. They are indeed great, sharp and a lovely colors. Pic nr2 seems a bit out off focus. but the other 31 makes me forget this one completely :lol: :respect:
About your early question.. If I am not mistaken, Andras changed the quality setting in de export to Jpeg, so check if your Jpeg and RAW file are the same quality.
Ps.watch out for mister Jag....
