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.

Awesome shots! looks like KLM kept it high again on final :-|
The last A343 shot brings in a lot of drama because of screaming people!

Note how people who make photos of the jet aren't able to move with the jet, as they are still pointing their camera's to points where the Aircraft already passed!

I'm looking forward to the rest of the shots!

REMEMBER: Amerijet 727 Arrival TODAY 7:40 in the morning!!!

Hope you get him..

Kind regards, Jeffrey!

Thanks! The Tokina is one of the best Fisy-Eye lens at the moment I think. It is a bit hard to make a good picture on 10mm with the whole airplane in it but try and see!

Looks very nice Daan! I'm going in august to Curacao and I'm going to buy a ticket to SXM. What is the best day to travel to the airport to spot some heavies (SS/KL/AF)? I arrive at 10am and leave 6pm. Did you also see the Air Caraibes A330?
