Scott, WOW, perfection!

[Jeff D. Welker]

Thank you very much ladies and gentlemen!  For anyone who's interested - 1/125th sec., f/9.5, ISO 280, Shutter priority. Nikon D800E with 24-120mm f/4G VR @ 24mm.

I had to think about this for a few minutes to let that all sink in. Now I truly understand what Jay means when he says "Dude...  "

I can only assume you asked the Herc driver to turn on the image stabilization system as you bounced on the ramp while making this photograph. 1/125th - DUDE

Thank you very much Harvey!

I always forget how much less user friendly the environment is back there until I'm there the next time. It's not a half bad place if all you are doing is watching but as soon as you start trying to shoot you realized how much turbulence there is.  I don't know what Jay's experience is like in the Beech but I'm assuming it is a genuine accomplishment to get those gorgeous full prop circles.

Very cool shot Vance, you have been busy lately, you have posted a lot of fine shots. Nice work.

Thanks Harvey.  Just going through the archive disc and processing some images that I ignored the first time around.

And, no. I did not even try for a full arc... This is 1/100 at 100mm
