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.

Lekker Lekker Lekker :-)

I love all those Japan shots! Great Hiko Kyodotai Camo on that bird on Tsuiki Patrick. And I like the "staggering CH-46" from Erik as well. Marcel, just keep let them coming of course. And Dino. Grrrrr. I am not Jealous I am not Jealous I am not Jealous I am not Jealous I am not Jealous :-)

I continued working with my scans today. Not so much work to do as I am in between jobs. Here a few new ones of mine. We also had our share of bad weather as you can see on the pictures taken at Iruma.
