SPOTM May 2016 - 'Grumman Gulfstreams - any mark'

Post by andygolfer » Tue May 10, 2016 4:24 pm

This is the SPOTM (Special Photo Of The Month) competition for May 2016 and the subject is 'Grumman Gulfstreams (any mark)'
'.

The subject of your entry should be one or more civilian registered Grumman Gulfstreams of any mark including turbo prop versions (I can only think of the Gulfstream 1 but better cover my rear). Aircraft which once carried military markings but were civilian registered at the time of the photo are eligible.

Photography Competition Rules :-

1. Only one entry per user, unless posting on behalf of another person who is unable to do so themselves (children for example). If this is the case, please state so on your entry..

2. The photo may have been taken on any date, it does not have to be taken in the month of the competition

3. The image can be photo-shopped to some extent, levels changes, cropping, sharpening etc. are all acceptable. The photograph must retain it’s initial subject though, don’t make it something it’s not, (cutting and pasting the moon into the shot, for example !). HDR images are not acceptable. If you are unsure, please PM a moderator.

4. The competition will remain open until 23.59 (UK time) on the 1st June 2016, to enable anyone with a last minute entry some breathing space.

5. Voting will be conducted by a poll open to all the membership shortly after the closure of the competition.

6. The decision of the moderating team is final.

7. All images must be posted in line with the usual CA posting rules (size etc.), please read them if you're not sure how to post.

8. The rules may be subject to change, and these will be posted on this thread.

9. Please also embed the images and not links to images, if you're not sure how to do it then shout up and someone will sort it out. It is permissible to change your entry before the closing date.

10. Do not comment on other member's photos.

11. A brief description of where and when the image was taken would be nice too.

If you have any questions please PM me

Good luck everyone.
