I know what you're thinking, and I already googled the N-number. Pretty sure this is not Satan's PC-12.

All three of the Pilatus shots above are supurb. Nicely done all!
When did they paint the PHX pilatus?

When did they paint the PHX pilatus? I love that. More tax money down the drain.
Some time between when Joe took his photo on 10/7 and today. Is there a paint shop at Falcon Field? Maybe that's why it was there.

My guess is that he got rid of it because it can't make .5 past lightspeed.
Nice Joe!

Nice spinner "wink"
Quote from: Jay Beckman on May 24, 2011, 08:57:20 AM
Nice spinner "wink"
Thanks Jay. I took several of this bird leaving and choose this one to post precisely because of the spinner "wink". Interestingly, my 70-200L 2.8 II produces those "winks" or "stars" regularly. I'm not sure if that is a good or bad thing; however, I like it from time to time so far.
That's a result of shooting at relatively small apertures like we have to use in broad daylight here in AZ.
Slap a three-stop ND on your lens and shoot at f/5.6 instead of f/13+ and the star pattern will be much less noticeable if it even reads at all.
Personally, I like those kinds of specular highlights. They give images some "sparkle."
I feel kinda dumb that you had to explain that to me :P I should have been able to figure that out for myself without displaying too much ignorance on the world wide web. Just when I think I'm starting to understand photography, I get reminded that it is a never ending education. Oh well, I learn a little something each day if I pay attention to others.
Thanks for the enlightenment Jay. Like you, I like those sparkles and glad to know why they show up on my photos from time to time ;)
'tweren't directed specifically at you Jeff.
Just a passing observation that was meant to broaden the collective...
