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.

Hi Nick!

Thanks for sharing your pictures! And I also have seen your post yesterday... always good to have some practice to get own with your new camera!
Possible you're using an automatic program on your camera to take pictures I guess... but try some manual setting to improve the quality of your pictures.
Set your camera to "M" (of manually) and choose the shutter and diafragma by yourself. Keep the ISO-values low (100 of 200 max). It will improve your
pictures! Furthermore it's important you enjoying making pictures!!!

Great that it came anyway! I was REALLY sceptical about this one, I thought just like the last few times a Antonov would visit RTM, I was at the airfield for hours, but no... It always went to AMS...
Very nice shot concidering the night situation and ''hand made'' part!

Kind regards, Jeffrey.

Jeffrey, now that is a nice catch and my day off offcourse :wink:

Nick: SSB-Spotter gave some good tips and I would like to add to use a leveller tool. It will make the horizon horizontal (level).

Well, at least you took the trouble actually posting "photographic evidence" of this visit. :lol: :wink:

No thanks Nick! I think the most important thing is to have fun with making pictures and spend your time at the airport with your new camera. Quality of pictures is not the only thing, but it makes it more fun to try to improve your pictures. When I was not able to go out for spotting of anything else, I took a seat in the backyard and I made thousand of photos to become own with my camera. Trying different settings, other angles... Just to learn working with my camera. And off course to have fun!

You're always welcome to post your pictures to Scramble, and people will always give you some tips. And I really enjoyed your pictures! So thanks for sharing and have fun with photography!

@jeffreyklm
It's a pity that it was delayed. Initially I was also 20:30 at the airport but then I checked Scramble and noticed it was delayed.

@tomba2247
Thanks, this is the real whitebalance scheme, I can't correct it because I have no real white in the pic. This yellow light is real.

But edited in an other way:
