Post by reaper493 » Mon Feb 28, 2022 5:12 pm

Time for the March photo comp.

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 photograph must have been taken during the month and year in question - March 2022, the date the photo was taken MUST be included in the post.
3. The photo can be of any subject you like, as long as there is some military aviation connection.
4. 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.
5. The competition will remain open until 23.59 on the 6th April 2022 (UK time), to enable anyone with last minute entries some breathing space
6. The voting will be carried out by you, the members of FC, by a poll which will be created at the closing of the competition.
7. Moderators/Administrators will not be exempt from the competition, but cannot vote for their own entry.
8. The decision of the moderating team is final.
9. All images must be posted in line with the usual FC posting rules

If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

Just to clarify from the rule "(cutting and pasting the moon into the shot, for example)" I can assure that the moon was really there!

Having attended The Ton Disbandment Parade today I could have submitted an image of the formation flypast but this one really captures the finality of the occasion better.
