Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.
Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.
Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Hi,
having my lunch today, this plane did a fly by, then it did another one, so I got my camera 
D70s, 70-300ED, F8, 1/1000s, 240mm
This was taken from our balcony that looks south. I have never taken photos of airplanes before, but it was fun waiting for it as I saw it circle over the ocean for another pass along the cliff here at Redhead. Also, most of my subjects tend to be stationnary, but it was fun taking it. Went to the edge of the cliff, waiting for it to do another pass, it looked like it was going to, but at Swansea, instead of coming back along the beach, it went over Lake Macquarie 
The plane is a Consolidated PBY Catalina. The Historical Aircraft Restoration Society owns it. More info about the plane can be found here:

It didn't come out as sharp as I had hoped, but it was windy
Probably would go for slower shutter speed, next time, if I have time to think about it. Live and learn 
Cheers,

My only gripe would be the frame, it's too big and black and detracts from the main subject (which is a bit dark anyway). Otherwise a good shot. 
 Bob.
