    #0 doesn't work for me. You have gone for a feeling of movement with the zoom while shooting - but the aircraft is clearly stationary (props not moving).

    #1 & #2 You have taken back-lit portraits or a very majestic lady. I really like these but they need some PP. The lady is under-exposed slightly. For a shot like this you really need some fill flash but as you didn't use this (or it doesn't appear that you did) I would suggest doing some selective lightening in post.

    #3 She has a lovely curvy rear and the back-lit execution is very good (although again I think some PP on the lady to lighten her slightly). However, the subject itself isn't as appealing as #1 and #2. I guess I am more of a face/boob man than an ass guy

    #4 Really like this. I don't think it would work half as well if you hadn't caught the light reflecting/illuminating the wings. Good work.

    I like your approach and that you chose to use the sun/sky/clouds to complement the plane. Most plane shots would have ignored this.

    You obviously know what you were doing and wanted this mood so in that respect it worked well.

    The last one is great.
