Avro Vulcan


I am a picture noob myself, but I think this is a pretty good picture, so I would like some other opinions. Thanks.

 * Not sure it needed that much crop; I kinda prefer the original, with the radar tower not being cut off. Maybe some of the foreground grass could be cropped.  You should also add the image to Avro Vulcan in which I think it would have more EV. Consider replacing this one which is of a similar angle, but lower quality than your image.

 * Right, I've cropped the original image to keep the full mast in and reduced the foreground. Also I have added the image to the Avro Vulcan page. Thanks. Sunderland06  (talk) 20:02, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Looks good. One other thing I notice is that nearly all of our aviation featured pics are action shots, where the aircraft is actually flying. Possibly people at FPC will be less enthusiastic about a parked aircraft.  Though we have numerous shots of  "parked" birds, so that doesn't seem fair. I'd see if anyone else wants to comment and then give it a go.  Fletcher (talk) 14:20, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * It's a good point about it being parked. The problem I see is that not only is it parked, but it's parked in an fairly unattractive location, with that fence largely filling the bg. To go with the comparison to the parked birds, if you look at the bird FPs they may be mostly parked, but they tend to be quickly opposed if the background isn't appealing and typically 'natural' looking. I'd say that would be the real issue here. But just an opinion. --jjron (talk) 08:31, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
