Attempt at prop blur and my handholding skills at 1/100 sec



Cheers

Some nice shots, especially considering the conditions... wish I had known this was on, Only a short drive to Tyabb.

I think they are excellent aviation images. The prop blur in the last one is particularly good. I used to live in Tyabb, in the 80s.

Thanks for the feedback !!

Love the images, any more to share???

Good pix, sounds same conditions as point cook AS
I was keen on going but it's 100km away from here and got up a bit late
more pics more pics!

Although they are all very high quality #3 stands out for it's great composition, color and background and #4 for great propellor blur which makes it very dynamic.

How many P40s are still flying in Australia? There cant be many CAC Boomerangs that fly, is this one a replica or the real deal?

VH-MHR / MHR / A46-122 (cn 945) Both of Matt Denning's Boomerang creations flew in formation at Temora in October 2009. CA-13 Boomerang VH-MHR (Suzy-Q) is shown taxying in after a formation flight with 'Miss Imogen' (VH-XBL/ LB-L/ A46-63). Matt took 28 years to build VH-MHR from bits. (The second Boomerang was built faster.) After selling VH-MHR to the Temora Aviation Museum, he still gets to fly it! This Australian designed and built Type is a regular participant in Temora Aviation Museum Flying Days.
