    Looking good! Never knew that STN had nice vantage points. is this place accesible from the terminal? If so, taking a day-trip on Ryanair might be on the cards.

    Both the Easyjet and the Air Berlin are too magenta/red on my calibrated screen. I did a quick-and-dirty modification by adjusting the black- and whitepoint values in PS levels.

    Could you please let me know which feature that is? Preferably with the shortcut (ctrl-?) since I use the Dutch version.

    the first photo is a dead-link. The other 3 show different photos. I am at work BTW, so the PSP workshop will follow tonight. Also, since the monitors here are not of a photo-editing standard (not even calibrated!), the below comments are subject to change after viewing on my own monitor.

    Link 2: Air Berlin: The overall photo is rather dark. You should make it a bit brighter. Did you try curves?

    Link 3: Easyjet: plane is just a tad dark perhaps. Foreground is definately too dark. Here to using curves should help a lot, perhaps with a bit of added contrast and added colour correction (can’t quite think of the name).

    Link 4: Saudi: colours seems OK, for as far as I can tell with this monitor sharpness is good to. Should be acceptable.

    The “computer” in your camera decides the settings on the amount of light. Pretty obvious when you think of it

    However, this does mean that when you focus on a white plane (say Air France), that your shot will be brighter then when you shoot a dark plane (say old style British Midland). Therefor if you got a perfectly balanced shot of an Air France plane, and the next plane is a BD, then you’d better put the exposure adjustment up a tad!

    If you can post two examples I shall edit them a bit. Maybe add a few screenshots. My version of photoshop of 7.0-Dutch, but the location of the individual buttons should be the same.

    Great photos!

    Am I the only one that can not wait for the parking area at T5 to be opened? With a decent size lense I would suppose the shots from planes landing on 9L would be great!

    Might I ask which shipping company was used? I work as a import agent doing car parts from far east/australia to Europe, and must say that some of the rates you mention seem a bit inflated over what I am used to. Of course I work with large contracts that can buy their rates in bulk.

    I am affraid I am not allowed to mention my rates due to the boss getting pissed of about it. 😉

    Also, what where the incoterms of your shipment? FOB, DDU?

    😮 The 787 will need 3000 miles of runways to take off? Well, still less than the A343 anyway :diablo:

    Realy though, I think you meant 5650 meters.? 😉

    He asked for maximum runway length. The plane has a stated range of 5650 kms (or was it miles, whatever), so if it goes taxiing from one end to the other you get 5650 kms. Probably less as the plane will consume more on the ground then in the air.

    Just wondering what is the max rwy a 787 needs?

    James

    The maximum runway would be around 5650 kms. Just a conservative guess. The minimum length is not yet on the Boeing site.

    Considering RYR has also sold a few of their older 738s that where due for expensive checks, would this new order be used for replacement or growth?

    I really like the motive on the BA surrouned by flowers! Also, the ARJ with contrail behind is a very nice crop too!
