Airscene 2013 Airshow Calendar Competition

 

Terry Jones Art

28/10/12 - The final set of results has now been posted - I would like to leave you with a few words from the Red Arrows photographer Cpl Graham Taylor whose selection completes this years competition...

Before I give you the results I'd like to say that if I had taken any one of these shots I'd be very, very pleased with myself. There is obviously a lot of talent out there and every one of these photographers should give themselves a well deserved pat on the back.

To say it was tough to select just twelve is an understatement. My girlfriend will vouch for that! I'd like to wish all the entrants the best of luck and hopefully I'll meet some of them on the airshow circuit in 2013!
