I think someone has mastered the art of panning and planspotting

Seen your work around and just taking a moment to say great stuff lloydh - looks like you've found a great place to get those up close shots of planes without having to jump into the air yourself.

A few more with the 300mmF2.8L as shot no cropping

+ a 2X 600mm @ 1/250, never realized they could go so fast on grass with slicks

Well from a technical standpoint you can have a look at my comparison of 70mm, 150mm and 65mm macro lenses at varying apertures here:
Triple Macro lens test - a set on Flickr

And even compare the sharpness (again at varying apertures) of the MPE at varying magnifications here:
MPE 65mm test shot series - a set on Flickr

In addition to those my other sharp (very very sharp) lens is my 70-200mm f2.8 IS L M2 which has test shots (with a 2*TC) here: 70-200mm f2.8 IS L M2 test - a set on Flickr

but the sharpest is proabably this:

Which is a focus stack of 3 shots on top of each other - focus stacking (though tricky) often produces fantastically sharp shots as a result of the stacking process.

I love this! Man, I want a macro lens.

I cry foul, lol. If you are shooting Jpeg you are altering the image in camera, or if converting from RAW unless all defaults are set to zero, you are altering the image. I find it very hard to believe that most of these are pure RAW to JPEG conversions simply on how raw files look in general. Once you factor in some of the gear being used, along with the perfect White Balances being shown (from people who I would bet money don't do a custom white balance before shooting) and the stench of BS gets pretty strong.:lmao: Perhaps a rule change to specify?

Also, polarizer filters should be mentioned or any other color altering filter.
