That last shot of the Cessna is SO exactly what this thread is about.



I agree David, but remember that people are "shot down" because there planes were showing a control linkage..............



Alas Teus, that' was back in good ol' days when people where enlightened.
If only one could wind the clocks back to the Golden Age

Great shot David. This one certainly looks like the full-size version. Love the sky too.

Forget Teus remarks about the control linkages, he was just refering back to the days when the thread started. The whole concept being trying to take a picture of a model, in a scale setting, thus creating an illusion of a full sized. 
For many posts, those rules/guildlines went out of the window! 
Your Cessna get us back on track. Great picture.

Status: offline 		I think my remark is a little bit misunderstood and I had not made that remark at all.

As I started my previous post: I agree David

The Cessna photo is outstanding, both model and photo. In my opinion it is one of the winners from all last years posts. Good looking model, good background, great angle and a razor sharp photo with a good color profile and exposure.


The control linkage? For me thats no problem at all. But I indeed did refer back to a period when a lot of people were jumping in when someone placed a photo showing a linkage or antenna (back in the MHz days) etc.

So in my opinion: Don't hesitate and place that beautiful photo of your model even if it shows (in some eyes) a inappropriate item.

It's planes on the ground in 4 in. grass and other obvinoxious items laying around that kill the scale aspect.
My pet peeve is when a picture is posted that clearly shows that the poster has no idea of what this thread is about...like a see-through covered glider sitting in the scale equivalent of 4 ft. tall weeds.

The premise isn't "Best scale model airplane photos", it's "Best scale photo of a model airplane"

I say bring back the old days of Pass/Fail and sometimes EPIC FAIL.

That was fun and the thread was so much more interesting and looked forward to.

I agree totally. There's tons of threads out there where you can show off your scale model. That was not the intention of this thread when it began. I still don't understand why folks get upset when they are asked to try and keep to the spirit of the thread.

Photo #1: YES.
Photo #2: YES. (If you like that sort of thing.)
Photo #3: NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!!!

It's not so hard to understand.

Status: offline 		Still one of my all time favorite threads. The clueless that post photos of their arfs here or a photo of them posing holding their plane just add to the charm. I get to see amazing planes and the completely clueless ridiculed all in one thread.
