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.

During my vacation in and around seattle I was on whidbey island. I took some shots on a beach that was near NAS whibdey island. Pity that I was too late with fixing a basevisit

Not the best weather conditions,but I shot some nice pics.

Hi Toppiero.

Put about the weather. I Like the Prowler pair. Do you have geo-tag, or do you remember at which spot these were taken. And how many mm ? Seems they were quite high ?

taken with 300mm. they weren't really high. they were in landing for the NAS. you can find the beach to drive south after deception pass. It is just 5mins driving south from deception pass. From there just walk to the beach and you can see them landing right in front of you.
Greetz,

I doubt if you were 'too late'. I tried the same (sent a letter some months ago) and when I didn't hear anything I sent an email too and got neither any reply. So I guess this is just not the base to arrange a visit :cry: .
