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.

WOW,

very impressive pictures over there.
Did you made a lot of pictures inside the terminal? Or are are perfect facility's there.

But JNB offers a great oppertunity near the runway near the cargo centre.

I was there in 2005. It's a great field!

Hi MAs017, Maarten and I are both photographers so we are not always that interested in what we can't shoot.
But I am sure if you'll google around you will be able to get listings of what is stored at JNB.

Time for another batch

I think I need a new keyboard, 'cause I drooled all over mine!

What are spotting conditions like? Easy access to places where you can take this awesome shots?

Mucho kudos on the SAA A340 with the reflections, very well done!
