Over the years on Airliners,net, I have accumulated quite a few links to my favourite photographers in the bookmarks of my browser. They are in a separate folder, and when I have some time to spare, I like to go into it and browse their pictures, old and new.
In this thread, I would like to celebrate the greatest treasure of Airliners.ner - the photographers. Each post will be dedicated to one of them, with a few plug-ins of my personal favourites.
There will be no particular order to the posts, it will be random, as I don't want to elevate one photographer above the other - I admire them all equally.
Some of them have thosands of pictures in the DB, some a couple of hundreds or even less. Some links, unfortunately, no longer show any photos at all.
I invite anyone who would like to contribute to post here too.
Well put Andrei, so do I.
We're blessed to have a variety of photographers who all have their own unique specialty, each is extraordinary in their own way.

You definitely did me too . And as I have had the photos for the following three photographers already selected, I allow myself two plug-ins of my personal favourites for each one of them (they definitely deserve at least six photos in this thread ) :
However, from this time on I promise not to repeat photographers - there are plenty of them on A.net for this thread to go forever.

Quoting Dlowwa (Reply 20): Man, trying to pick just two from each of these guys was tough...
That's why I try to do at least six. I also believe that each of them deserves a separate post. I'll put in a few more for some of them. I guess I'm breaking my own promise in my post above, but oh well
