Thought Warbirds over Addison would be a good time to get some prop blur work in and get some good static shots
. I havent done much static shots at all so go easy on me, lol. The were all shot with my new Canon G16 which has turned out to be a nifty little camera! Heres the story behind the infamous “Glacier Girl”

Thanks bud!. Yeah these are just my static shots plus the P38. Still have a lot more to post. As far as fylin, there wasn’t a whole lot of that, mostly just giving rides to people. They had it set up weird, you caught the start up and taxi then had to walk back out the front gate and down to a viewing area (about 300 yards away) to see them take off. They’re was no flybys or low passes or anything like that. Addison airport is so busy they said they couldn’t shut it down to get the airspace for stuff like that. So anything that did make a flyby was up way high and right above.
Great set of images, Bryan. Being a jet guy I found myself gravitating towards that picture with the Thud in the background. I also like that nose shot of “Boots” Blesse’s F-86 with all those kill markings. Great stuff.
