Re: Eurofighter Photography competition
this is a very hard decision to make i would say that the second one is a no because the brightness of the sun destracts the eye so the attentntion is less on the aircraft and i also think the hawks are to visually impareing for the eurofighters so i would not suggest entering the second one.
for me it would have to be either number 1 or the last one as i think these to give a real sence of the power and beuty of this aircraft.
P.S what compotition is this as i may think about entering it as well

Re: Eurofighter Photography competition
Well if you want to enter a competition with these, I would offer the following points (please note this is only my opinion!!!):
1) Soft focus, cropped too tight
2) As per AN-2's reply
3 & 4) Cropped too tight and again soft focus
5) is ok but not a great angle on the typhoon, not sure if belly shots win photo comps!?
6) Too dark and lack of detail

Re: Eurofighter Photography competition
For me:
1) Focus is on the wrong aircraft, and as such the subject is backlit and obscured.
2) I like the shot, but as others have said the sun is a little too bright - you've lost half of the aircraft to glare. It is an attention grabbing image though.
3) Is cropped too tightly, and looks soft, but with a wider crop and some sharpening, it should be fine.
4) Is out of focus and blurred.
5) Is bland - undersides aren't very exciting at the best of times, and the lighting is very flat.
6) Is certainly original, and could be your best chance of entering a unique photo. I don't think the edit brings out the best in it though - it's very dark. A bold black and white edit might suit it nicely.
