fighterpilot 0 Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 all of them are good, don't think we need more as a year only is 12 months Link to post Share on other sites
simi_av8r 0 Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Thanks, Sunrise/sunset is at the top of the list for February Others I have are: Five mile high club - pictures taken over 26,400 ft Landmarks - pictures including recognisable places Aerobatic manoeuvre - Under bridges etc Northern Lights - Popular skyscape Capitol Cities Your best screen shot - Unedited open category Extreme weather - Probably thunderstorms more? Cheers There always seem to be a lack of whirly-birds in these comps Mut, so how about a Helicopter only competition? Done Also, it appears that most entries are tube liners - fair enough, most don't have anything other than these, but you know what they say "Variety is the spice of life".... so, how about a 'Vintage' month, anything pre-1930's. That should make an interesting months theme! Done Any thoughts? Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted February 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Thanks Guys all are going on the list. Simi, Helos & Vintage are good ideas Link to post Share on other sites
greenk 0 Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 grass (only) runway in sight Link to post Share on other sites
wisemanp 0 Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Some good ideas already folks! Here are mine... 'On the ground' 'Not your everyday shot' - Something inventive 'Spring forward' - Similar to the Winter scene comp. (Has to involve flowers or something...) 'Buildings' Link to post Share on other sites
TomA320 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 What about: Airbus Wing viewsDone G/ADone Your best shotDone Link to post Share on other sites
rosariomanzo 545 Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 First, I must really start betting on the competitions' winners... I would often win! The Cessna over the fence is absolutely astonishing! My suggestion for the theme is: Title: "Hey Captain, what are you doing?!?" Subtitle: "Ehmmm... sorry!" Just to have some funny unusual images... i am still laughing for the dizzie nosed down on the runway after a (really!) strong brake! Ciao! Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted February 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 Thanks Rosario, a comedy thread, I like it Cheers Link to post Share on other sites

B77W 0 Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 Some great ideas so far! How about the simplistic 'wing shot'. Done! Link to post Share on other sites
pmtos 0 Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 what about WW2 planes Link to post Share on other sites
Edward Longe 3 Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 I'd like to see GA or Vintage British aircraft.Done Link to post Share on other sites
rob16584 42 Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Maybe we could have a theme for a certain region of the world? Perhaps Australia, Carribean etc.. Link to post Share on other sites
Soya 7 Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 How about plane-less shots, ie shots without an aircraft/helicopter in sight, just scenery/moods/dawn/dusk/sky shots? Link to post Share on other sites
rob16584 42 Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 How about plane-less shots, ie shots without an aircraft/helicopter in sight, just scenery/moods/dawn/dusk/sky shots? You've only said that because you know you'd win :great: Link to post Share on other sites
TapA321 0 Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 How about Airport Overviews? Cheers, George Link to post Share on other sites
hurricanemk1c 195 Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Experimental?? Such as prototypes, projects that were cancelled by the Labour goverment because of America's influence (no offence John) like the TSR.2, HS684 (transporter) and the H.1154 (supersonic Harrier) Link to post Share on other sites
Edward Longe 3 Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 What about tri-jets? or more then two engines? Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 Some of these will have been said before (?).... 1. Unusual angles; 2. Internal (cabin) views; 3. Captain's view - VC or 2-D; 4. Extreme hazards; 5. Global warming (That's enough! - Ed) BTW, I'm not sure about 'just scenery' - it depends so much on the add-on and the power of your gpu. As an other possibility, how's about 'unusual default scenery' - you know, airfields in holes in the ground, etc?? Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
rob16584 42 Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 How about running an extra comp one month for edits based around the main theme? For example, this month's theme of wingviews, run an additional comp for wing view edits? Link to post Share on other sites
