    I like the last one best, that is really good!

    The first is ok, I like the smoke ring, but the backround would look better it was softer. The second is good, if you boost the shadows. You have #5 spot on, great shot!

    I like the selective color too, striking!

    RC's can be a lot of fun. I haven't started that hobby because I know from my friends how much it can end up costing. And I wouldn't be happy until I had an airship lol3.gif

    Was there any other activity where you were? The last time we were out we ended up helping start a real airplane! Story here.

    Thanx for commets. Well yes the last and nr 5 is most def the best " in flight " pics. I did not put to much efort in it to do so well. I will probably end up there again so it just to learn the hard way. The AF on my tamron 28-75 is not that fast i want it to be in following AF.

    4 & 7 are my favorites. 5 came close, but unhappy with the plane being on the same line as the background horizon.

    I like 3 & 6 for club info pictures or backgrounds.

    RC stuff is fun to watch! thumb.gif

    #1--Don't like the composition. Something about it just doesn't strike me as 'right'.

    #2--I love the composition, but it's dark. I think it would look great as B&W.

    #3--Water spots on the lens. If you raised the camera another 15 degrees or so, I think it would be perfect!

    #4,5--Beautiful. 5 is absolutely great.

    #6--Meh, don't like it.

    #7--I'm a sucker for layered shots like that. Especially with the red.

    #8--I don't like the path of the shadow. I like seeing the sun behind the shooter.

    #9--I really like this one. Took me a moment to realized that the 'copter was inverted.


    Was the event as loud and noisy as I imagine it being?

    I'm a fan of selective colouring. I can't help myself.

    Nope nothing with the wings =) Nobody did acutally crash this night.

    Im only happy with nr 5 and 9 I was just slacking arround and did not put any effort into it. Will do it again and do it better next time =)

    And no it was not that noisy.. Just the helli and nr 5 who was powerd by nitro engines..The others are electric..Which actually is better now these days. Think it is the combination of brushless engines and Lipo polymer batteries..uuuursomething.

    And i sort of like the selective one.. Will get a better tho.
    Thanx for lookin clap.gifclap

    I haven't any, but I love RC.

    Numbers 1, 5, and 7 and my favorites. Great vapture of the smoke ring in number one. NUmber five is just good; nice color, focus and everything. Seven is yet another selective coloring that really works for me. Nice, sharp pictues all around. Good job! thumb.gif
