Judge Ashar wanted to see tail shots... and he was indundated with entries - here he describes his agony in his own words

"Oh boy...This was VERY hard...Now I know what happens during the monthly competition...Anyway...It took me quite a while and I narrowed it down to around 4 choices...Then I had to further narrow it down... "





Who did Judge Ashar choose???











…..







MEES!!!!





...



"My choice for winner is Mees...His shot perfectly captures the feel of being on the tarmac...and with the AI and great scenery in the background, I can almost hear the APU's roaring in the background...In addition, the weather in the shot makes me want to pull up my jacket...LOL... "



CONGRATULATIONS, MEES!!!





Runners up are….



PD87


...




"PD87 didn't win because I thought the shot was missing something...mainly the scenery...It looked rather bland in the background"



Eno


...



"Eno's was very nicely done, however, it didn't capture the feel of a ramp agent..."


"Alonso X receives an honourable mention too..."


Thanks Ashar for the comp, and to everyone who took part.  The winning 3 will be up in the portfolio gallery shortly.
Judge Mees has already come up with something - all will be revealed tomorrow night  Smiley


Cheers!

nice theme....when you say you dont normally get that thrill of going up the rear sairs in western airports, I couldnt agree less.....almost all the airports I fly to/from require you to walk out/catch a bus to the plane and go up the steps....very fun Smiley

Very nice Matt, that's exactly what's needed - not just a nice tail, but great background scenery as well.

Not really Grin

The B-2 is actually quite a distance behind the C-5... It's just a very large plane!

And the angle I chose makes it look like a bunch of USAF crews got quite tipsy and had a bit too much fun Grin


(It's a C-5A by the way!)
