Specialist Competition August 2010 - USAF Bombers

Post by Ben Montgomery » Sun Aug 08, 2010 10:09 pm

Photography Competition Rules - Please Read Very Carefully.

1. Only one entry per user, unless posting on behalf of another person who is unable to do so themselves (children for example). If this is the case, please state so on your entry.
2. The photograph can have been taken at any time.
3. The photo for this month only, must be a USAF Bomber Aircraft. Examples of these would be B-1s, B-2s, B-17s, B-36s, B-66s etc. Aircraft from any period are valid, as long as they have a "B-" designation.
4. The image can be photo-shopped to some extent, levels changes, cropping, sharpening etc are all acceptable. The photograph must retain it’s initial subject though, don’t make it something it’s not, (cutting and pasting the moon into the shot, for example). HDR images are not acceptable. If you are unsure, please PM a moderator.
5. The competition will remain open until 23.59 on the 1st September 2010.
6. The voting will be carried out by the FC staff.
7. The voting decision is final.
8. All images must be posted in line with the usual FC posting rules
9. The rules may be subject to change, and these will be posted on this thread.

B2 at Fairford in the dead of night (something like 1am). Was raining and windy at the time and had no idea how to take night time shots. Must have taken hundreds while I was there just to get one reasonable quality one.
