Morning all, new here. Some great pics, finding inspiration to move me on.

First one from me, 'Hopper' at last weekend's BSB at Cadwell. Just bought a prime 50mm, primarily for portraits, but wanted to try out panning with it. Thinking of going just prime at the Revival to force me to look at things differently. Too many years of the same old stuff now.

Bought a 5D Classic to use with my primes, impressed with to image quality for a 9 year old camera.

50 shot pano with a Sony a7 / Zeiss 135mm 1.8, this took some processing! I prefer the wider crop but it's hard to see at forum widths...

Well that one photograph has turned me from a supporter of the Union to one who hopes the Yes lot win.

It's a start smile so here are some hopefully constructive pointers.

Pic1
Good landscape but I'd crop or clone out the pylon in pic1 and also brighten the pic up a little.

Pic2
Good composure with the 2 Lancasters and the vignetting work well.
Sepia rarely works well and IMHO it's not great here but that's just my opinion.
The central watermark doesn't help, the bottom right version is better and I'd recommend having a grey rather than white version as it's less intrusive.
With prop planes a slower shutter speed works better as it blurs the propellers.

Pic3
Nice Vulcan shot, not much to suggest here but maybe allow for a bit more space in front of the plane for it to go into.

Most of all keep shooting and processing, you'll get more of a feel of it the more you do and have fun biggrin
