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.

Summer Holiday Taiwan + Okinawa, Japan

Post by GIPS »

Hi All,

Just back from a very nice holiday in the far East. Like always the sightseing with the wife was combined with nice beaches and lots of Spotting!
Spotting in both countries was great with no troubles at all. A very special thanks goes to Reinier and Apple!! :D :D

The circumstance to take pictures were quite hard because of the high position of the sun.

Nevertheless I tried to make the best of it and hope you like them?

Wat a very nice set with photos do you've made.
You told us about your trip at the base visit @ Laage this year.
It seems that you've got also some basis visits over there.
Photo 15 & 16 are my favorite photos, nice position and nice angle.
