B-17 In Motion

B-17 In Motion

Thanks for visiting my page.  Today's blog is about a favorite warbird of mine, the legendary Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress.  I got this shot at the Bremerton Air Show this year and was thrilled I got as close as I did to not only see, but hear, this WWII bomber.  The aircraft had just finished engine start up and began taxing to the active runway.  I was also working on improving my propeller blur and, with the engines are low rpm, I had to get the shutter speed down to 1/60th of a second exposure.  There are certain photos (I honestly don't know why) that should be shown with a "period" look.  The FORCE was strong with this one. 

Talley ho!
