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.

the video of the birdstrike on the KC-135, you can see the bird sitting on the runway, then flying away towards the aircraft and it slams right on front of the left wing between the engine and the body, after this happened the bird was still moving and the fire truck went to the bird to have a look, couple of minutes later an jeep showed up and the guy in the jeep shot the bird.

I'm sorry dude ... but I don't like your pics. Are you a beginner in photography or not? That's relevant for my next questions.
Not a single one is sharp or has a good lighting. Considering this are my first thoughts ... I hope you are open for photography-tips? Excusme for my languange ... it's late and not my regular language on this forum, don't shoot me for it. But the right questions seems to be: what are you aiming for? Maybe we - as in experienced guys in photograpphy on this forum - can help you?

Don't think that's true, he's got some nice shots there, and I like some of the art-farty's aswell...but a lot of them aren't sharp indeed!

You can indeed see the bird from about 1.00 minutes onwards, slamming against the concrete at about 01.05 minutes-ish. The hit didn't really seem to bother the crew of this KC-135! :twisted:

Well I agree partly with Mike....

But why dump a whole CF and not make a selection of these shots.
If I where you, I took a max of five shots and post them. This will result in more positive replies.

Best regards, Rob.
