Default Old Ones are the Best Ones, pt 2 - 002index.jpg (1/1)

Mitchell,
Good foil...
At the risk of this being taken the wrong way I think what gets you in
trouble sometimes is the lack of source information. As in if you picked up
a book and made a scan make a mention of where it came from. OR if you
don't know, mention that you don't know and invite the owners of the
copyright to claim credit. Certainly not a 10 paragraph explanation but
perhaps just one or two sentences at the beginning of a series. It's been
my experience that an open and willing approach works out best. As for a
time machine, isn't that what war bird shows are for??

Mitchell,
There is something to be said for quality as well... Besides this group
is not about competition it's about sharing the one thing all of us male
or female amateur or pro share; our common love of aircraft.

So I would encourage you to get away from posting series of images that
where shot by others, and post those that you shot as your time allows.




Since my main interest is in historical aviation
and I don't have a time machine I have to rely on
the images taken by others. Ergo most of the stuff
I post are black and white images from decades ago
("Dog Days of Aviation", for example). One of the
joys of this group is that is not limited to
original images. It would be a much duller place
if it were restricted to only images from recent
airshows and museum visits.
