Prop Blur - Military

[Kedar]

Thanks, Jb. This is the most nicest shot of Fat Albert I have, just the right amount of everything.

Yep this is hand-held - dont have any pods. Sometimes I get lucky

It's more than luck.  You are steady like a human tripod.  After shooting right next to you shooting the Collings Foundation aircraft and seeing my shots vs what you posted , I could clearly see that luck had little to do with it.

Bit of propwash and blur when this USAF C-130 left Prestwick PIK recently

C-130 doing touch and go's at Palmdale Plant 42 couple days ago.

1/100 sec with tripod acting as monopod, no image stabilization on lens.

Monopod/tripod...handheld is the way to go!!      

Nice angle on the C-130, and great prop blur, a full arc!

Thanks.

I find I'm too shaky to have any hope of getting a good shot handheld, but I do find it limiting when they go flying by overhead or just ripping past as in an airshow.

I guess I'll just have to keep taking pictures until I'm not so excited by them.
