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.

Spottersnight Volkel by SGV - 18-jan-2012

Post by Iwan Bogels »

Hi everybody,

Tonight SGV organized another "Spottersnight" at Volkel. Despite the weather and the cancelled flight schedule it was still a major succes, thanks to the good preparations and hard work by the SGV-team and several KLu members. Well done and lots of thanks to all of you.

Cheers,
Iwan

Great shots Iwan! I especially like the third (creative) photo. Maybe, after all, the cancellation of the flight program was a good move, since flying/taxiing activity usually brings a lot of restrictions to groups..

I guess the pilots think otherwise.. For them its valuable training and could care less about restrictions. Just a thought..

WOW that last one is really nice!
But you should try it in black and white, I think that will look incredible!

Got some too.

Few moments earlier than Iwan's pic, but with the same idea in mind. Must admit that Iwan's pic is more misteriously looking due to the closed cokpit:

A little test for a change, with as result a nice effect:

Had a great evening, too! Thanks to SGV and KLu members, you've really been spoiling us!
