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 Ewald,

Always nice to see these nice aircraft in their beautiful home country. I hope you don't mind if I give some comments on your pictures? It is meant as a positive feedback to improve your skills. If you don't appreciate it, please let me know.

Overall your pictures are a bit dark and not really sharp. In some pics it looks as if the outer area of your lens is soft (e.g. the left hand side of your Vampire J-1197 shot). I don't know what kind of lens you use, but the Sigma 100-300mm f/4.5-5.6 I used had the same 'characteristic'. This lower price end lenses perform better with a smaller aperture (higher f number), provided the light conditions allow.

For example your taxi shot of J-3079 (at 400 iso, F/11 and 1/500s) looks much better! (The position of the sun also helps there).

Keep them posting!

Thanks for your comment, I use the Tamron 28-300 f3.5-6.3. I know what the problems are with that lens. I ordered this week the Canon 100-400 L. So after some time I hope to make (post) much better pictures.
