Coolidge Municipal Airport (P08)

Both outstanding Jeff!  Really like the tight crop on the nacelle/prop hub and the dreamy soft background in the shot of the ADF antennae.

Why didn't you tell me to get out of the frame? A terrific pano that has been irreparably disfigured by my presence

Tired...
How I feel today after Saturday's photon gathering bonanza at Coolidge and CAF Airbase Arizona.

My obsessive and compulsive DC-7 photography continues with a tight shot of the starboard side eighteen-cylinder Wright R-3350 Turbo-Compound engines.  The second image is the first time I've photographed the entire airframe.  If you can guess where the third image was taken at Coolidge, I'll buy you a beverage.

Welker + Hasselblad + Coolidge + DC-7 =

= another nicely crafted shot of a round engine in a square format.

I like how you crafted that compliment Scott; "round engine in a square format".  I've been trying to get square pegs in round holes most of my life.  Maybe this is the way to go

Your photo proves that it can be done despite many failures by others during aptitude tests.

More fun photographing one of the R-3350's on the DC-7.
