Duxford - My first go

[DMH]

I've been going to airshows and taking pics for years, but this is my first attempt at putting my pictures on-line. I would greatly welcome any comments and suggestions. I appreciate that most of the pictures posted by others are far better than mine and so that's why I'm putting these up - I want to know how to improve them.

All are taken with a Canon 350D through a Canon 70-200 'L' series lens. No filters are fitted and the only editing is cropping in PhotoShop and then 'save for web' to get the file size down a bit. I'm hopefully getting a Canon 600D body soon and a 300mm prime and I'll also try to get to a position where the sun is behind me...

Not speaking as a photographer - great pictures, well done and thanks for sharing them!

I'm far from an expert, but I think you need to add sharpening to your processing workflow - the ones above look a little bit soft, which they all do when they come straight out the camera. Other than that - nice shots

As already said, just a little sharpening needed. Very good otherwise though.

Thank you. I'll try that and see what happens. I'm guessing less is more with photoshop filters?

Thanks for that, I hadn't seen that. I'll read it and have a go at improving my pictures. I'll save looking up HDR for a rainy day...
