    Sorry old chap, but I was expecting something a bit more interesting…

    …than a dull, un-popping picture of a half drunk cup of coffee, a piece of cake/food/toast and what might be a Nikon DSLR & lens with a weird strap thingy attached!

    I was expecting something along the lines of a picture of an aeroplane at least…

    …but them I am a curmudgeon, however despite that obvious fact, welcome to DGPF and good luck in all your picture projects!

    …so where are the pictures of the bloody aeroplanes then? eek7.gif

    Mike - try a slower shutter (around 1/160-1/250)for a bit better prop blur. Also - how much of a crop is this? It's a bit soft - that's usually due to panning issue or over-cropping. Since your shutter speed was so fast it shouldn't be a panning issue.

    I like seeing a bit of the trail - but it isn't full enough for all the frame you've devoted to it. Right about where it hits the "C" would have been good.

    Thanks for sharing!
