This is the New & Unranked Members Photo Competition, summer 2016 and the subject is 'aircraft performing at an air display in 2016. The competition is only open to those members who have never won one of our photo competitions as one of the aims of this competition is to encourage new and less experienced photographers to take part in our competitions, as well as existing unranked members.
The subject of your entry should be one or more civilian aircraft taken whilst carrying out an air display in 2016. Aircraft which at some time have previously carried a military registration but subsequently transferred to a qualifying civil register are acceptable and as such ‘warbirds’ are acceptable but please quote the civilian reg. in your post.
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 during the months 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 run for approx 3 months and will remain open until 23.59 (UK time) on 1st September 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.
12. The competition is only open to those members who have never won one of our photo competitions. Should you win another competition whilst entries for this are open then any entry posted here before you won that competition will still be eligible for this competition. The winner of the competition will receive a rank against their forum name and will no longer be eligible for future competitions in the New & Unranked category.
If you have any questions please PM me
Good luck everyone.
Andrew

I'll kick off this off with a shot of the Breitling wingwalkers, displaying their 2 Boeing Stearman's. This was taken at the Biggin Hill Festival of Flight on the 11th June 2016.

This Oil Spill 727 displayed parallel to the runway, and came straight towards the Swan pub. The light was interesting, and I got a shadow in the spray that was unintended, but most welcome.

My one from the Culdrose Airday 2016 (Groundday) G-EWIZ Pitts Special, this was the only "display" of the day due to low cloud and this was his departure....
