Just a small thing,
Your DH Rapides aren't. They are DH84 Dragon (G-ECAN) and DH90 Dragonfly (G-AEDU) :wink:

Can I say that in 15 years of being an Internet user - I have never seen as many pictures posted by a single individual in one thread
you have more pics posted here than most folk have got on there hard drive :grin:

so getting any kind of response for so many pics is asking for your thread to be ignored - the best advice is look at other threads and see how the others edit there pics etc

but I have got to say I am totally overwhelmed with the sheer amount you have posted
cheers Chris

Have to agree with Dan that selecting your best few images would be more effective than posting up so many. That said, there's one or two that I quite like in there, the Reds running in from crowd-rear at Eastbourne most of all. Selective cropping would help many - taking the Reds shot, for example, cropping the formation tighter (but keeping that nice sun and a little of the ground to contextualise it) would turn a nice shot into a great shot (in my opinion, anyway!).

Also agree with the previous comment of having a good look around the other photo posts and picking up what you can in terms of editing. I can't claim to be anywhere near the standard of some on here, but with so many new photo posts appearing all the time, you can pick up a hell of a lot.

Lomcevak26, Chris Procter and DanO1978:

I was thinking along the same lines myself, with cutting down on images, so i will put one more post of the best shots from the rest of my 2008 aviation year. This is a new laptop that I am using and i have just discovered another photo editing program that i have. :smile:
