Hello Frikke,
The action is well captured, and the wet runway gives a fine effect on touchdown!
I presume this is photographed through a window which will reduce quality a tad and call for post processing for compensation...
I did a quick workshop to show you what I mean!
Greetings,

Hi Frikkie;

It's good to see that you've taken to the site quite actively. Just a couple tips for someone new to the site...
When you get a moment, check the Terms of Service in the 'about' section at the top of the page. Although not quite as strict as JetPhoto.net, there are some guidelines that could save you from having one of your shots removed. (You haven't done anything wrong yet that I can see... haha)

It's good to see you've been critiquing as well. Many people have gotten frustrated with the site as they don't get many critiques/ comments from people- but you'll find that the more active you are in critiquing/ commenting the more you'll see people do the same for you.
Although I like Pablo's cropping, I think he's lost some detail in boosting the shadows (blacks).
Sharp detail on this stubby A380!

Cheers,
- Dan

Hi Frikkie,
Impressive shot showing that huge jet landing. That spray is phenomenal. You were just on the righ place to show this side view.

Hello Frikkie,
I see you like aircrafts, or at least, you like to take photos of them? I like aircrafts a lot.
I guess you were very lucky to have taken this photo, no matter if it was taken through a glass. It's a good picture! The movement of the aircraft is so clearly seen and so obvious. IMHO, it's always a grand sight when an aircraft is landing or taking off.
good work! TFS
