Re: EX ARCTIC CHALLENGE/BALTOPS/SABRE STRIKE/AMPLE STRIKE 17

>That's 0300L to 1530L. I'm not sure if that is common for a Sunday? Times are Local, so 08:00-20:30, which becomes obvious when you look at other Minot NOTAMS. For example - " 04 MAY 00:00 2017 UNTIL 30 NOV 23:59 2017. CREATED: 03 MAY 18:16 2017". It's quite obvious you're not sure how NOTAMs work.

Quick question;

What's with the small writing on the images?

Air14 Payerne

Morning all, A belated look at the tremendous event over in Switzerland last summer. How to celebrate your centenary in style. Apologies for the number/difference of watermark; edited over various periods since the event. In no particular order; https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8730/16699041168_2fb349...

As a note, this is also an Army example, like the 228. (Esercito)

Re: Out for a stroll…Really?

It's not just 'Loop-regulars' though; I'm not one and can see the error. End of the day, you don't need give these kind of agencies ammunition to put into their nonsense cannon, and an opportunity to lambaste like they have done previously. Doesn't have to be the Loop for example either. (Ie. Jets l...

Re: Out for a stroll…Really?

This is why, I would expect: I'd also wager that most people criticising Craig also aren't jealous but simply annoyed at the fact someone who has been shooting LL for a few years would be as naive to sell images to an agency/newspaper. Craig was vocal on another forum when another persons images en...

Re: Mont de Marsan

were these with your 150-600?
They were not. Too close to the action for that, so these are all 100-400. However, these photos from Abingdon are exclusively 150-600.

Re: Abingdon

Thanks for the replies.

Rich, just to avoid confusion, I mean crops as in the framing at 600mm meant you were quite 'close in' at times and not necessarily cropped down in post-processing.

Canon version, attached to a 700D.

Abingdon

Evening all, A decent day out at Abingdon today. A shame about the late drop-outs, but the better than expected forecast certainly made up for it. Bit of a test of the 150-600 today; some rather tights crops resulting from shooting almost exclusively at 600mm for a large part of the day, to try and ...

Another disappointing Typhoon. Not enough blue; surely synonymous with 6s history.
