Nikon 1 V3 Hodgepodge | Waco Time to go back to the golden age of aviation! The soft sepia finish adds to the old image look. This beautiful Waco made several takeoffs and landings on Antique Field the day I was able to attend the Blakesburg AAA Fly-in.
The Back Story Positioning at the Blakesburg AAA Fly-in, is easy. There are no crowds and the planes fly all day. Like all propeller plane shots, the shutter speed must be low enough to make the prop blur. Needless to say, it’s all about keeping the plane in the frame whiling panning and clicking with the hammer down. For more soft sepia aviation images, see Soft Sepia Aircraft | a 7 Image Story. Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
