Nice to see it all shiny and new – like it just rolled off the showroom floor! What a beautiful shot, Bill – so much detail!

Oh my! What a lovely almost beautiful shot..A work of art even... Extremely well taken Bill, thanks Rob

And hell, there is a typo on that propeller label... I'm almost sure. Cripes that photo is better than my eyesight... I appreciate seeing the details of engines... I've read that radial engines were simpler to build and mainatain... I'd hate to see a "complicated" engine... strewth!

You say "zoomable"---everything you do is zoomable. To not zoom a shot like this is to miss a genuine treat. This is big, and I assume the original would be bigger if you didn't have size restrictions...Your pov is dramatic to a macula. (Ok, I can't believe I just wrote "macula". Forgive me, it's late.) (I'm off topic here, but I haven't even thought the word 'macula' in maybe 200 years. Where the hell is my head at? I'm pretty sure it means "spot" or "tiny thing"...don't look it up. You probably studied Latin at the Citadel, and I don't wanna look like a jerk here.) Your pov is dramatic to a fault (better), it opens up from back to front, and, ba-da-boom: That frontal area is just a knockout. Now I assume that only a person intimate with planes would sense all these dramas, because this is a very intimate shot---not because it shows 'innards', but because it feels like something a plane person would know. Ie, if you were gonna portray the fire and power of a great propeller, this would be the way to do it. Those curvilinear metal casings---the wire tubings from the inner part of the propeller to the outer rim---bear with my terminology---feel like electrical lines, lines of power, bzzzzt bzzzzzt. The things behind---with all that tight grill work, transformers maybe?---feel like power sources ready to shoot commands to the propeller. And the propeller stands atop it all, triumphant, ready to take on the heavens and catapult these fearsome beasts into battle. In fact, the way you allow extra space at the bottom of the propellers makes it feel like the bottom propeller is holding up the whole plane. And, as linear detail, you've got the propeller head lined up with a banner behind it---perhaps unconscious, but it's what artists do instinctively. The yellow bands anchor the piece, and the fade of the body (into the background) give it depth. I don't know how these feel in person, but in this shot, it's racing up to us and baring its fearsome teeth; and it's a real knockout. The ol' 5D MKIII is at your service, sir!

Great shot of a great plane! I've never seen this type of camo before.
