dark light

Luton 11.5.08

After 1 and a half days gruelling revision for exams, I decided to reward myself with an evening at the local. The weather had been great all weekend and thankfully it stayed that way!

Enjoy!

This was the catch of the day (Boring I know, but we don’t get them here) arriving in the last of the evening light.

I’m going to upload a few to JP tonight, so can some of the more experienced photogs advise me as to which are likely to be accepted, so I don’t waste my time with useless shots.

Thanks for looking!

Thanks for the help, I know the Luton tower is straight but since the taxiway is at a relativley steep gradient it looks really odd straightened to the tower. Maybe not this shot quite so much, but in others taken at the spot it is very obvious.

I haven’t taken the exams yet! It was revision I was taking a break from, the exams start next week!

Nice photos! Would like to go spotting at LTN again some day.

Here are some JP.net pointers:

1) Bit dull motive, but quality wise OK. Do level the horizon as the LTN control tower is not located in Pisa.
2) Should be OK for JP.net.
3) Not to sure of the motive. Either include the cockpit only, or include the plane up to and including (part of) the engine.
4) Like it a lot! At the very least try uploading this one!
5) The grass blocking part of the gear might kill this one´s JP.net chances.
6) Definately a no-no. You can clearly see the borders of the fence you shot through. Even a tight crop won´t deal with that.
7) Not to sure on this one. I think it suffers from the same problem as photo 6.
8) Definately same problem as number 6, but rear only. Maybe a tight crop at the cockpit area could work.
9) Too dark, lacking sharpness.

p.s. Congrats on making it through the exams! When do you hear if you passed them?
