Prior to an interesting few days in the south of France, we (drs. Stipjes and I) decided to start our spotting journey in the Balkans. Here are some pics I took in Albania last week: http://i896.photobucket.com/albums/ac164/lmblok/Albania%202010/FAAS_ShenyangF-6_std_3-39.jpg http://i896.photobucket....

Speaking of El Bosque, one photo I made over there really pleases me the most: it shows the very old 'German' hangar behind the T-35B Pillan. A charming piece of history. Onfortunately, it didn't escape recent events either. The walls showed some cracks. Let's hope the basic structure is not comprom...

To show the strong relationship between Chile and the US, the efford was made to send two F-22A Raptors to FIDAE for flight demonstrations. Although FIDAE is a commercial show, no brochures were spread by the Americans with price list, list of options, obtainable colours, etc. :wink: http://i896.pho...

Here some more pics of our visit to Chile. Marco already showed all there was to see for us, but maybe it completes the impression of the trip... :wink: Let's start with the rest of the Brasilian delegation: E-99 (6704): http://i896.photobucket.com/albums/ac164/lmblok/Chile%202010/FAB_E-99_2-6GAv_67...

As most South American countries, Chile has many types of aircraft and helo's in it's inventory. Visiting Chile during the FIDAE period allows you to log most of them: FACh Bell 412EP: http://i896.photobucket.com/albums/ac164/lmblok/Chile%202010/FACh_Bell412EP_002.jpg FACh S-70A-36 Blackhawk, H-02: ...

Not a visitor for FIDAE, but present on thursday for the delivery of cargo: a C-130B Hercules from Uruguay! NICE!!!!

Chile, a great country! Beautifull weather, nice steaks, and... a great variaty of aircraft! Starting my posting, here are some pics of the team Brasilian team Fumaca. http://i896.photobucket.com/albums/ac164/lmblok/Chile%202010/FAB_T-27Tucano_EDAFumaa_001.jpg http://i896.photobucket.com/albums/ac16...

Iwan, thanx for taking the time to explain about HDR. Looks like you put a lot of time in mastering HDR. I must say I like the normal shot better in this particular case, but many of the examples in the HDR thread look stunning enough to realise HDR can sometimes deliver results that make normal pic...

Hallo allemaal, een erg leuk en lastig onderwerp: deze topic is gestart met de vraag of je beter een 100-400 of een 70-200 met converter kunt nemen. Ik zal alle lofzang over de 70-200 uit de vorige reacties niet herhalen, het is gewoon veruit de betere lens qua AF snelheid, beeldkwaliteit, etc. Echt...
