Europe in the snow, pictures from the air
 
It is time for those who were brave enough to fly in these last couple of days to post their most beautiful white pictures HERE

TotalBeginner 7th Feb 2009 10:15

No, not brave enough to fly but I did manage to get a picture. It's not taken from an aircraft, but a high viewpoint, does that count? :}

Now that is low flying what height are you at 50 feet :) ?Mind the church spire in front of you.

Question do you have to have your pictures on a site somewhere to put them up here?

Yes. photobucket is a good place to start. Free and easy to use, once you've worked out the basics of how it works.

That is one lovely picture

vanHorck 7th Feb 2009 16:48

you certainly do not seem to be a total beginner in terms of photography!

Any other posters?

This one was taken a couple of years ago over the lakes... sort of counts?.?.?. :ok: Got a trip planned for Snowdonia early tomorrow, hopefully the weather will hold up long enough... if so I'll get some pics. :)

hi all, i'm a training student (33ish hours). lucky enough to get up today over sussex, decent white blanket over the south downs! afraid zero value-add from me photo-wise, but wondered if anyone else flies from shoreham?

cheers...

vanHorck 7th Feb 2009 18:42

Nice!

I guess you PA28 drivers all use software enhancements (Adobe?) to improve picture quality... Beautiful !!!

Blues&twos 7th Feb 2009 18:49

mattuk1 - if you get any aerial pics of Shoreham & surrounding countryside covered in snow, could you post them please? It was where I was brought up, and mum & dad still live there. Only flown from Shoreham once, though...second lesson, excitingly windy!

blues&twos - sure thing, hope to get up later in the week but not sure if it's going to be snowy again :(

you're right about the wind..grass rwys are u/s at the moment and if memory serves wind was 120/18 for rwy 20 in a c152 a few weeks back. not fun for a student (thankfully instructor on board!) :}

Total Beginner, that photo of yours would make an excellent 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle picture (my daughter and her Gran are into jigsaws since Christmas). Very nice. :ok:

TotalBeginner 7th Feb 2009 21:55

Sorry, I couldn't resist! :)

well done VanHorck
 
What a great thread. I will try and get one or two photos at work tomorrow.

TotalBeginner; Do you mind me asking where the photo in post No.2 is.

vanHorck 8th Feb 2009 06:48

It IS happening, just what i was hoping for! The South East should be flyable today so let's hope for some more!

Considering this only happens every 18 years those who can take the pics are the lucky ones!

I guess the last picture is a very short final of an airbus at former Ipswich Airport????? :ok: :D :ok:

Bushfiva 8th Feb 2009 07:14

Barshifter, exactly where is your first photo taken? The fields just below centre seem to show older underlying field systems and perhaps a previous building complex of some kind.

usedtofly 8th Feb 2009 10:27

TotalBeginner,

Your first picture was very nice indeed, where is it?

As for the second 'version'..........now that's funny!!!

UTF (still LOLing)
