21 Nov - RAF Lossiemouth: Clock strikes gold..

Had a day of two halves down at RAF Lossiemouth today. With 3x Hawk T2s deployed and all three squadrons on station I expected a busy day's flying, it didn't start that way with a good three quarters of an hour before the first movement after our arrival. They were on 05 and the T2s were already air...

Re: RAF Lossiemouth 03-04/10/12 [MIL]

The Thursday started off promising and within minutes of arriving at 05 the Shadow launched, initially not noticing I managed to swing round my camera in time to catch the moon in frame too! These 5 squadron Beechcraft Shadow R1s are supposed to be kept out of sight of the general public, right? :w...

RAF Lossiemouth 03-04/10/12 [MIL]

Courtesy of my university timetable I managed to make a two day trip back home and off to RAF Lossiemouth with Mark (Lossie15) and my Dad for a couple of days. I planned to have two days, the Wednesday and the enthusiast's day on the Thursday which I initially did not get a place on but thanks to a ...

Re: About this forum

It's not about how criticism is said, it is how it is received which can be the problem. The fact that everyone has to translate to English makes it quite difficult to both get the message across and word it politely. The fact that so many non-English speaking users make the effort to translate is a...

Re: Belladrum Music Festival 2012

I do stuff like this too but it is too bad that the majority of the pop / rock (or whatever) festivals don't allow "professional" photogear. You pay a lot (!!!) of money to get in but your camera has to stay out... Thanks guys. I'm lucky in that its a small enough festival and I was cover...

Re: Spanish Bombers

Agreed with key regarding the vignetting. On many it is too strong but the final shot has it very nice - could do with a bit more exposure though. Great shooting of an unusual subject though!

Re: Please read the photo forum rules again!

I am one of said culprits. I apologise for the frustration called, it's because I usually copy and paste the post and title from the other forums which are less strict on this rule. I'll try to remember to amend the title to suit in future though. :)

Belladrum Music Festival 2012

I was given the opportunity to shoot at Belladrum, like Rockness it is near Inverness, and I was very keen to do so. Having been in previous years I knew it was going to be a great festival anyway because it always has a very family-friendly, enjoyable and relaxing atmosphere about it. The music is ...
