Hi Tony,

Perhaps I missed something. The person submitting the photo has to be the photographer. They are supposed to be RC related to compete. ( Full scale stuff is nice to see but RC is the subject of the competition ) I did not see where the picture was required to be taken in the month of competition. Did I miss that one? Perhaps Wizard can chime in. If that is the case, I think the number of entries will be much smaller.

I just enjoy looking through all the pictures. I find this venue easier than browsing the photo gallery.

I would be curious to know what equipment everyone is using to take their photos. Some of them are really fantastic

Personally I am using a Canon 20D camera and either a Canon 100-400 L series or a Canon 28-135 zoom lens. Most of my shots are taken in aperature priority at F/8 and I try to keep the shutter speed between 1/500 sec and 1/1000 sec.
