Forum rules
This 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. |
Sunset at Gilze-Rijen, 9-9-10
On the way back from work, i noticed that the sky was clearing. So after dinner I drove to Gilze-Rijen to hopefully catch some choppers in the evening sunlight. On arrival a cougar was flying patterns around the base and pretty soon it also practiced with some slingloads. Nothing else flew untill it already got to dark to take any photo. So here are some pictures of a cougar in the last sunlight at Gilze-Rijen.

fantastic set!
Re: Sunset at Gilze-Rijen, 9-9-10
Very nice pictures and good composition. I miss a little bit contrast in the pictures. I hope you do this more often in the future!

Nicely done indeed. 1 and 3 are great: nice composition and perfect atmosphere!
Little bit more contrast or I would say saturation could be nice. On the other hand, the pics have a nice soft expression, really reflecting an nice autumn sunset evening!

I'd rather depict atmosphere and the 'heat of the moment' making a catchy photo than to reflect the real situation and real colours showing a boring photo.
