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 Micha,

Great stuff!
On the airfield photography is challenging as your are looking into the sun for the better part of the day.
But with a bit of patience one can take a couple of decent shots.

Do not forget that there is also an incredible museum with dozens of aircraft in the hangars.

Below a small selection of the things we saw last Saturday.
At the bottom also a little a little You Tube film I made with my cellphone. Quality is not the best, but you get an idea of what to expect.
Also listen to the great sounds of those beautiful engines.

:respect:
Absolutely beautiful shot. The composition with the colour of the sky and the fields in the back in combination with the Spit is simply stunning.
Also nice vid, must be an unreal scene seeing so many warbirds take off at once (although I personally think the Skyraiders don't belong in that flight)
Got any more?
