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.

Thursday 14/08, I spent the day sitting in the undershoot of 09 at RAF Leuchars.

Below are some of the pix I took on that day. All taken with a Canon EOS450D, no editing except for resizing.

Why not? I think some editing would definately improve your photos.

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.

Mainly because I haven't had any time to do any cropping yet! I got back late last night and am at work today.

Also, I'm farily new to Digi so have to learn editing tips and tricks!

Any help appreciated! :)
