Just to try something different for a change, I processed this picture of a banking Aronavale Rafale with HDR-software. High dynamic range imaging (HDRI or just HDR) is a set of techniques that allows a greater dynamic range between the lightest and darkest areas of an image than current standard digital imaging techniques or photographic methods. This wide dynamic range allows HDR images to represent more accurately the range of intensity levels found in real scenes, ranging from direct sunlight to faint starlight, and is often captured by way of a plurality of differently exposed pictures of the same subject matter (source: Wikipedia).
Spotterdays at Kleine Brogel in Belgium never ever dissappoint. This one was for 2009′s Nato Tiger Meet.
By the time the end of a year is nearing, there’s always someone on the Scramble-message-board who starts a “best off topic”. Below is my contribution to that topic about 2011. Most of these are in other posts on this site too, but I thought it to be nice to have the best in one post, so here we go:
Bought myself e new (second hand) Canon EOS 50d, which of course had to be tested. So I did on december 29th, 2011.
Weather wasn’t so great, but still some nice pics.
Op vrijdag 16 september 2011 was ik aanwezig op de Luchtmachtdagen op de vliegbasis Leeuwarden. We werden getrakteerd op prachtig weer en zo mogelijk nog mooiere vliegtuigen zodat het een memorabele dag werd.
Whenever I’m on holiday, even with the family, I try to find the time to check out some nearby airfield. This year we were in France, not to far away from Marseille. So a perfect opportunity to re-visit Marignane airfield with the Euocopter factories and the based Securité Civile aircraft.
Just a regular day at the small airfield of Hilversum in August 2011. Some interesting planes to photograph though.
