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.

Tuesday July 15th - Wales (LFA7)

Thanks to Frank Noort's website the places to be were easy to find.

One Squirrel and a Hawk pulling up because of low clouds where the only aircraft flying. Of course the views of the surroundings were as nice as with flying activities.

Despite the largest airshow that was cancelled on earth and only a small number of jets through the Machloop it was a nice holiday. Next time with more sun and less drizzle!

Great shots, Rogier. You are showing to be a versatile photographer. Especially the Wales part I like a lot!
