The Weekly Collegial Show Your Photos Starting 3 November 2025 Any Brand

This is the weekly Collegial Show Your Photos Any Brand thread where we invite you to show your own pictures. It is collegial in that it is a pleasant and friendly place among photographers to share.

I will begin this thread each Monday (Pacific Standard Time) to give each of you all the chance to share your weekend photos with us, for those that follow a regular work week schedule and choose to do it that way. But the pictures can be taken at any time with any camera, including your cell phone. It's open to all skill levels from beginners to advanced. The images posted can be anything from casual snaps to extraordinary. I'll be sure to comment to each of your photos, if you choose to share. Replies from others are encouraged also.

The intent of this thread to mainly to just show photos in a relaxed way and to generate replies or comments about them. Generally I'm not planning to critique any image unless asked. But I or we may ask things about a photo that may develop into a discussion, always being friendly and helpful. It has been a request that I mention this and from what I've learned from past experience: Can you ask a member first if they would mind you editing their photos?

Remember it's all about the enjoyment of taking pictures regardless of what we have. We can learn from each. Please share any tips or techniques too. A narrative sometimes also helps. Thanks everyone for your participation.

Subject: Air Show

Here are some pictures I took at an air show in September. It's at an airport that did not have favorable lighting (taking them sometimes, somewhat into the sun). But with some patience a person could wait for the right moments where the lighting was OK.

Photo No. 1 - I decided to just use my DSLR cameras for the airplanes in flight (except for one I took with the mirrorless Canon R8). It was easier to use the OVF.

I agree with David, that a very nice set you posted @Digirame

Thanks David and Photobygms. 😀

I don't have planes or birds, lately the birds seem to be busy with migration and or relaxing 😁
But we did have some decent weather on the Sunday.
The Saturday was a rainy so we got busy with repainting some inside windows and door frames and doors.
So on the Sunday we got out for a hike again while the weather would still be nice
Visited the boswachterij Odoorn and followed a wandelknooppunten netwerk trail we made, around the Schapenpark area

Photobygms,

I do like seeing all of those autumn colors. We are getting rain today, so the leaves are falling down quickly. It won't be long when there will be no leaves in the trees until spring. Every time you show those beautiful tall trees, I appreciate them. You got some more fungi and what appears to be sheep. The sheep look healthy and well fed. Or maybe they just have heavy coats of wool, that maybe some day they will share. 😀
