aircraft Untitled

Very nice picture. In aviation photography we often see prop blur just for its own sake, a silly fetish; here, though, it becomes a real compositional element. I like how the cloudscape and pilot's face are both discernable in the canopy glass. The photo tells a story because you can see (1) who he is (pilot in cockpit) (2) where he's going (sky reflected in canopy) and (3) how he's going to get there (whirling prop). And it works compositionally too with good light/dark play, strong forms and diagonals.
