I believe the vast majority of photographers use a version of Photoshop whether it is CS or Elements, so if your photo editor does not have the Levels palate or a histogram then you'll not know what I am on about. Back in the days of steam cameras without built in light metres, a bunch of...

I'm posting this on the behalf of the AP-crew to keep you up to date with the changes that we are making in the screening process. Previously a screener, who is a full member could open an image for screening and he would have ten minutes to check the information, add any additional...

I met a friend at Scone yesterday who was patiently waiting for the weather to lift in the English Midlands so he could deliver his Robin to it's new owner in the SW of England. To cut a long story short by the time that I had got around to taking a photo of his aircraft, the sun which was...

.... and got my first low-flying picture. Spent all day on the hill, got frozen to the bone, got blasted by a snow shower and only one tonka to show for my efforts. Great, I can't wait to go back again! Please note, going up unto the hills is dangerous, especially in winter...

I've always been keen to try something different and to learn something new so the challenge of HDR photography was right down my street. With digital photography, when we meter on a subject all we do is get the exposure right for the aircraft itself, there is nothing wrong in that except...

Patience is a virtue, a worthy motto for a photographer and even more so for an insomniac like me out at 5:30AM to make a 30 mile trip to photograph the departure of the first flight of the day from Dundee to London City. The planning was all in place, the weather report was favourable on the...

I awoke early and decided to have another bash at night photography at Dundee Airport. I arrived at 0630 hrs with about 15 minutes before the scheduled departure time and started to take some ground shots.

A mercy dash to the supermarket in Glenrothes to replenish my Irn-Bru* supply with a stop off at Glenrothes Airport on the way. There was not much doing except for a corporate do with what looked like a treasure trail, hired Mini Coopers and a jolly in an R44. Apart from that a brief minor exodus...
