Cheers to Boeing on a successful first flight yesterday. I think they have an excellent chance with winning the bid, especially since they have one flying compared to just a concept.

Jump to postSuresh, I'm not trying to be funny, but it is ironic, that the other sites Accept spotting locations into their databases.

Jump to postNice photos, I agree with Darren. I can't see the softness being an issue though. Brighten up that chopper!
Jump to postPaul, I agree with you 100%. I'm not going to even bother to speculate as to the why, but I do know for sure that many photos of mine are rated down after a few months, and they no longer appear in the Top Rated section. This has been talked about many times. O'well, I'm not going to let it bother m...
Jump to postDarren has some good points. I will just mention that whey I owned both a 40D and 7D, the 24-105 just about no use. If I wanted to go wide, I wanted to go wide and I would use my Tokina 11-16. If I wanted Telephoto, I would go with my 70-200. You might say, oh well the 24-105 will be a great "walk a...

Jump to postMy standard procedure is to get rid of any of that blue, the shadow clipping area. Make sure noise is under control and it is relatively sharp and not blurry, then it's in the hands of the screeners.

Jump to postKas, from my experience with these types of shots and trying to get acceptance, in the dark areas like the nose and from the flaps on each wing to the winglet, you can have dark areas yes, but you can't clip the shadows and lose the dark details. I can't tell unless I look at the histogram, but I su...
Jump to postHey Kas, I don't see anything abnormal. Exactly what is to be expected in this light / conditions / settings I think. Nice going, looks good.
Jump to postI would say try both. But the nose shot is great, upload that first!
Jump to postWow thanks again guys. Thanks Acontador for posting! I must say though, thank you to the screening team as well. Without their support this shot could have easily went to the Trash can.

Jump to postMatteo - I'm probably in the market for a tripod upgrade at some point in the future, mostly because I need additional support for heavier lenses.
