Nostalgia / Flying

[marc_dufour]

The last one.... Thanks

marc, this is my favourite of your "best of" series. how do you get these blues? wonderful & try to "recue" a few more before they disappear...
cheers

[marc_dufour]

Thanks a lot, Martin
I was lucky, this day, ant there were a truly spectacular sky. The scan is faithful with the slide.
I allways take advantage of flights, to make a lot of pictures (if the window allows :-))
I'm glad you like it, and if the rest of us agree with you, I should be delighted to rescue some more pictues (as many others, I suppose !)
Best regards.
Marc

I'd like to see more from this series. Those blues are lovely.

Hello Marc,


a very nice picture!......looks a little bit "dark"?....

regards,
Jan

Mami,
I agree with you about the blues, and I'll try to post some more "flying sights" :-)
Thanks for looking and comment

Jan,
Really, on the top of the window, and maltreating my neck, the sky seemed absolutly black...
The next time you fly (and after adequate stretching exercises) take a look to it, it's really surprising :-)
Thanks a lot.

I like how you go the shutter speed just right so the propellors can still be made out individually, but are also blurred to show the motion. Great colours and composition.

Thanks for sharing.

Ilan,
Thanks for kind comment..
Shutter speed were 1/250, I think. But, overall, I had a lot of luck :-)

Marc...most impressive. Wonderful work....

[andybarton]

This looks like a perfectly exposed and composed shot, from where I am sitting, demonstrating excellent technique.

[abrewer]

Excellent marksmanship Marc.

I'm in agreement with Andy...don't change a thing here. We shouldn't fear the dark areas of a picture.

Thanks.

Ah my dear sir, after observing much of your fine work throughout the forum, I must conclude that you are a master with blue ...

[marc_dufour]

Ed, Dan, Andy and Allan,

Thanks a lot to all of you. I really appreciate your comments.
I should be an happy man if I could do more spots like this one :-)

Marc

Dear James,

As a Dr. you are, you know that blue is the color of science, and therefore, the color of life.
And what do we photograph, but life ? :-)
Although Gerald Verdon said me there were a genuine master of blue in the forum, before I come here, I'm very grateful whith your comment.
Marc

Marc,
es inexplicable que se me haya pasado ver esta extupenda foto. Es impactante y llena de fuerza. Me hace imaginar lo inesperado y sugiere la aventura. Buenísima tonalidad y contraste. Me gusta mucho!!
