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.

Wow those F-50´s seem difficult to land in reasonable calm wind conditions. Took this one a few weeks ago. Also calm wind. The beginning of a trend. :wink:

Very nice shot Thermal, these Fokker 50's really seem hard to handle 8)

Btw, anyone spotted this BAE? Seems to be a rare visitor.

WDL tends to lease out a lot of a/c, so maybe this was on a SAS flight? Since they grounded their Q400's they leased some planes from WDL, although usually they have SAS stickers on them or have a SAS livery...

If I'm allowed to give a small advice here...
In my opinion it would have turned out much nicer if u took a smaller aperture like f/16 or even smaller... It would show greater depth of field so less blurred airplane. And if I were you I would have waited a few seconds longer so that the plane was right in between the lights.

For the rest, cq all of you here: nice shots! :P

I'd rather depict atmosphere and the 'heat of the moment' making a catchy photo than to reflect the real situation and real colours showing a boring photo.

Thanks for the advice but actually I was going for a very blurred/vague plane. Just to see what kind of effect it would give.

But I'll try your suggestion the next time :wink:
