Description
...been working with a variety of images that I took of this airplane (P-51B Mustang) in flight during a sunny summer day in July 2010.
...knowing the owner/pilot of this aircraft makes the whole project very engaging.
...may wind up making large prints to be matted and displayed. Always something new to do in this hobby...

P.S. Worth a zoom:)

the unmistakable mustang
Gorgeous Shot!!!!!!!!!!!
Amazingly beautiful.
wonderful
Very cool capture
that sky is lovely
The Mustang comes through loud and clear in this fine foto manipulation, Bill. The aircraft looks great contrasted against the muted sky.
Wonderful work,
Very nice work.
Super capture Bill looks great all alone up there in the air!!
Wow, excellent clarity and detail of this flying machine; the propeller looks like it's stopped!!
Great shot of this classic old gal.
Great image! I hope you'll post the whole series. They're all excellent! The sky was perfect that day, and the Mustang looks great up there. :)
Love the capture Bill. Superb capture. God Bless.
This looks really good Bill.
Lucky fellow to own that plane. Lucky you to have him as a friend. I wonder what that fly-by cost (fuel consumption, air port fees for control tower salaries, ground crew, etc...). It must cost a good bit. As for the photo - strange how I see the sky as almost painted. The lighting here is great - one can see both upper and lower surfaces clearly (no black shadows). Funny about "no prop blur" again. Same thing with a lot of debbielove's photos. Makes me wonder about prop speed in relation to shutter speed. And, D-Day stripes. I wonder what it's like to fly in a plane like that. Keep up the good work! :-) (Gee, am I repeating myself?)
Fantastic capture.
Nice crisp shot Bill, though I must say I do prefer a bit of prop blur, but these guys are so fast that it is quite hard to get a sharp fuselage along with prop blur. I note the gear is up so I'm thinking he is doing a fly-past, so he might be really smoking along, in which case I'd be shooting at a 1250th of a second too!
How fantastic is this!!! You have a knack for capturing the sense of speed Bill and this is good enough to frame with that background. If this was my mate i'd be forever sitting in that cockpit :)
I'd probably get half a mustang if I tried to photograph that. Re the prop blades... It also amazes me what cameras can do. Cool machine...
This is a excellent capture with everything in the BG.
That is an amazing capture Bill, so clean, crisp & so near!!!
Beautiful shot Bill! Go for it mate.. See what happens.. Its through the owner of a Yak (and an RAF Pilot), that I get Legends tickets.. I'm hoping still (lol) for a flight in the thing! More like this? Rob PS: Legends news... P.47 'Razorback', will make its first appearance there.. :-)
OH Yes, it would be worth a print :-) Beautifully done.!
Wonderful very detailed capture of this beautiful Plane!!! So detailed that in zoom You can almost see the Pilots face. Very beautiful sky also.
