Default Re: June '08 Photo of the Month Contest

Here are my photos from airshow that was 2 weeks ago:
In the first one you can see a dynamic flight of the helicopter in the background and and extra which was rolling to the take off area.
What a shame that the plane didn't have a polished spinner!! It was just after a flight when I have taken it- what should you take notice of is that you can't see the photographer,
On the heli photo-it's grass flying all around.
Last one is Jurgis Kairys doing a wall with a full scale Su-26.

Sorry for the bad quality of the photos- I am running a free ware of Irfanview and it isn't the best for resizing images. I can post high resolution images if needed.

Fantastic month flying wise. And did someone mention daylight for 24 hours

Ali flew from Friday till Saturday(taken at 00:02 on Sat).


Hjörtur getting ready to huck just before midnight


Nice glow during startup.


Earlier that day.


Hanging around.


You're getting too close to the action when 17-85 isn't wide enough.


Pitts in action.


And some aerial work

Happy 1st of July everyone!
Ok here we go! It wasn't as easy as I thought but was good fun to do! Thanks to Wizard for letting me be the judge this month!

1st place/Winner goes to RcGood!
Great all around picture with a very cool sunset! Well Done!



2nd place goes to Holler1!
I thought this was a very good picture, catches the pilot and plane! Perfect desktop picture! Nice work!



3rd place goes to X-Rated!
Awesome picture, amazing decals!



Honourable mention time!!
Of course all the pictures submitted deserve a mention but here are a few I thought should be honoured!

Hjotur and Selleri for the their pictures!





F3Martin for the Katana and the Jets!



Once again all the pictures were great and it certainly was a hard task to pick the winners! Would love to do it again sometime! Congratz to the winners!

Jack

Oh right ok! I will have to pick a new winner then! Selleri did have good pictures, hence the honourable mention! What I'll do is move Rcgood to first place (great shot) and Holler1 to second!

Selleri I noticed that you won a prize before in Photo of the Month, so I kinda wanted to give "everyone" a shot at winning! Is that alright, your photos were great so I did give them an honourable mention!

There should be a prize for the judges for it being so hard!
