SPOTM April 2015 - 'Two's company'

[andygolfer]

This is the SPOTM (Special Photo Of The Month) competition for April 2015 and the subject is ''Two's company'.

The subject is Two’s company’ – any 2 aircraft in the same photo, they don’t have to be the same or anything like that and can be helicopters or hot air balloons if you wish , the only rule is that there must be more than one and less than 3 aircraft in the photo SO who can compose the most pleasing entry with just 2 aircraft?. As usual they must comply with the civilian registered rule, i.e. can be warbirds as long as they have civilian registrations. If you are using a photo which includes a warbird please state the civil registration with your entry.

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 on the 1st May 2015, 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.

Good luck everyone.
