The end of the year is near, time to look back. And also time to make lists, so I compiled a list of 10 images of last year, that I like best. Do you agree?
01. In May a parachute exercise was held at the Ginkelse Heide, NL. I was the only photographer, and was positioned right behind the drop zone.
02. In Germany, exercise JAWTEX was held on various air bases. Below a shot I made in the landing at Schleswig-Jagel.
03. I also went to Wittmund for the same exercise, because the Turkish F-16's were stationed there.
04. At the Open Days at Gilze-Rijen we were very close to the Apache Demo Team. Crewchief "Joker" is checking everything before the demo.
05. The Air Power demo provided some nice clouds, and with a little luck I found this Apache in the center of my viewfinder.
06. We went to Schleswig again for the Tiger Meet, what a nice photo opportunities we got there!
07. Austrian Saab's were also present.
08. A small annual airshow is Valenciennes in France. For the general public it must be a disaster, but for photographers it's awesome, because there is a small road at show center behind the display line, where you can stand with the sun in your back.
09. Kleine Brogel Airshow in Belgium also had some nice participants.
10. And they flew 'till sunset, awesome!
