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.

A pretty good shot considering you were on the move at the time of snapping this photo. :wink:

That's a pretty sweet photo even if you weren't rushing by in a 737!

Can you take some more photos from a moving 737?
I'm really liking the angle on this one!
Well done!!!

Thanks gents :D

Lots of luck, was on a 4 months old 737 still with very clean windows. Sitting behind the wings but angle was just above the jetwash.
