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.

Well, at least you got him! Don't know if this one's shot in RAW, if so, slightly change your whitebalance and then it's okay i think. For the rest, it covers the atmosphere like it was at that moment, pretty good. For instance, see how the front part of the tail is covered in snow......

Ah well, this is called a "safety shot", or "record shot".

Better this than nothing at all... :wink:

@WildWeasel @rutger330:

JPEG's are also adjustable in PS, like this:

Of course a JPEG is adjustable in PS, but white balance can not be changed after you made the shot in JPEG, that is only in RAW, as far as i know.....

I agree with Rutger by the way (though it's better then the original).........a little bit too light to my taste, but of course that is personal....

Slighty change the WB, then you only have to put a little bit more exposure to get the right pic. Let's not forget, it was snowing pretty hard, and it was rather dark at that time anyways.

Hi Menno, it’s not a problem to change the whitebalance in JPG, you just have less quality to play with.. in numbers; for instance a JPG gives you 4096 different ranges in quality as a RAW will give you 40.000. Whitebalance can always be applied. But quality boundries will turn up more quickly if you change a JPG.
