Post by andygolfer » Sat Sep 08, 2018 6:43 pm

This is the SPOTM (Special Photo Of The Month) competition for September 2018 and the subject is ‘a displaying aircraft from a 2018 airshow'

The subject of your entry should be a photo of one or more civil registered aircraft including any preserved ex military with a civilian registration displaying at a 2018 airshow (anywhere in the world!).

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. 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 7th October 2018 - please note new extended closing date 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. 'Rule 6...' There's no rule 6 Bruce'

7. The decision of the moderating team is final.

8. 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.

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

10. 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.

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

12. 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.

I'd better do this before I forget as I've got lots going on at present!

Taken at Old Warden (they are the only airshows I've been to this year) at the May evening show, the Trust's newly restored Spitfire AR501 aka G-AWII showing it's beauty in the evening light, I'll never tire of watching that display:
