Dakota DC 3

Saturday, March 8th, 2008

I just got informed I passed the first set of tests in the Norwegian Air Force. Therefore I’m posting another airplane photo. This time it’s a Dakota DC 3, the most beautiful plane ever created in my opinion. The plane on this picture is owned and maintained by the fine guys at Dakota Norway.
I really like the colors in this picture, and especially since I haven’t edited them in photoshop or lightroom. I love it when things just work.

Another plane photo, since I haven’t posted anything in a while. This is a P-51 Mustang, one of the american workhorses during the war.
I like this pic, except for the overexposed spot on the wing.

F-16

In celebration of me taking the first test in the application process to the Norwegian Airforce pilot school I’m posting this picture of an F-16. I took it this fall, when I took most of my plane photos. I think the picture is “truly ok” as a friend told me, but still good enough to be posted here.

I shot this one this fall, the same time as the other airplane pictures. It is one of my favourite airplane pics.
It was a real lucky shot. Though luck is usually a big part of it. I took several pics to increase the chance of getting a good one, but although you can do a lot to get a good picture, luck is the factor that decides it.
