We're Off!

Thanks for looking.

Where was that taken? Good job of blurring the background but keeping the airplane sharp.

Thanks Alton,

 

This was taken at Santa Paula airport, one of the little treasures in the Los Angeles area.

 

My mission was to get a good prop blur and background blur with a sharp image of the airplane.

 

I wish the background blur was more of a lateral blur, but I guess I'll have to work on that.

 

Thanks again.

Nice shot - I really enjyed this picture, though I have to admit this is one of my favorite planes of its kind :) So even though I may be a little biased, it brought a big smile to my face - and it is a well executed photograph as well.

Thanks for your comments.

 

I like these planes too. I got a ride in a Super Decathalon in 1993 and took my first flying lesson the next weekend, and my first tailwheel time was in a Citabria.

 

CP Aviation in Santa Paula has a nice fleet of Citabrias and Decathalons and they specialize in tailwheel and aerobatic instruction.

 

I'm glad you liked the picture.
