Post by SteveS » Fri Feb 05, 2010 10:53 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 an aircraft with the military of a South American country.
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 1 March 2010.
6. The voting will be carried out by the FC staff.

As a South America specialist, it was hard to choose a favourite!
This is one of them, an S-2T Turbo Tracker coming aboard the Brazilian carrier São Paulo in 2002.
