There are so many reasons for that with light being #1. You typically fly orbits (fancy word for circles) shooting air to air. Why? If you fly a straight line you fly away from the airport and your costs double or triple is one reason why you fly circles. As you fly the orbits there is only a short time when the plane is flying into the sun and the prop lights up as you see here. You only have a short time then in each orbit if you want different aspects of the plane to make those happen. In these examples you have the basic side and top profile images. To get the nearly 360 degree prop blur I&#8217;m shooting at 1\/100 Shutter Priority, Vivid in AWB -.7. Kermit Weeks is at the stick of the P-51c and did an amazing job keeping the Mustang right there for us to make click after click after click. This means placing the Mustang in the frame is up to you and often requires turning the body so you have the attitude in the plane you want. You don&#8217;t worry about keeping it plumb to the earth but rather to the attack you want in the plane. You do all of this while using proper handholding and keeping yourself stabilized. It&#8217;s an incredible rush that I hope you can experience at least once in your life!<\/p>\n<p>Photos captured by D3x, 70-200VR2 \/ 24-120VR on Lexar UDMA digital film<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While we had some amazing, and I mean amazing static photography at Fantasy of Flight for our Air2Air Workshop, we were there to get in the air to do some [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","sync_status":"","episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","castos_file_data":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"{title}\n\n{excerpt}\n\n{url}","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[117],"tags":[206,205],"series":[],"class_list":["post-20436","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-air-races","tag-p-51c","tag-p-51c-mustang"],"episode_featured_image":false,"episode_player_image":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Podcast.jpg?fit=1500%2C1500&quality=100&ssl=1","download_link":"","player_link":"","audio_player":false,"episode_data":{"playerMode":"dark","subscribeUrls":{"amazon":{"key":"amazon","url":"https:\/\/www.audible.com\/pd\/Podcast\/B08JJQC1GR?ref=a_pd_item-n_c0_bc&pf_rd_p=1da7ab30-c785-4a0e-a160-4a7e7077b353&pf_rd_r=EEDMYHQM3DZ05FPRTHMJ","label":"Amazon","class":"amazon","icon":"amazon.png"},"apple_podcasts":{"key":"apple_podcasts","url":"","label":"Apple Podcasts","class":"apple_podcasts","icon":"apple-podcasts.png"},"rss":{"key":"rss","url":"","label":"RSS","class":"rss","icon":"rss.png"},"spotify":{"key":"spotify","url":"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/2fRA9VaVfSdQMKf1ipxr0tipxr0t","label":"Spotify","class":"spotify","icon":"spotify.png"},"itunes":{"key":"itunes","url":"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/moose-podcast\/id1107405746","label":"iTunes","class":"itunes","icon":"itunes.png"}},"rssFeedUrl":"https:\/\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/feed\/podcast\/moose-podcast","embedCode":"<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"2Gwjw62fBo\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/the-gorgeous-p-51c-mustang\/\">The Gorgeous P-51c Mustang<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" src=\"https:\/\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/the-gorgeous-p-51c-mustang\/embed\/#?secret=2Gwjw62fBo\" width=\"500\" height=\"350\" title=\"&#8220;The Gorgeous P-51c Mustang&#8221; &#8212; Moose Peterson&#039;s Website\" data-secret=\"2Gwjw62fBo\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\"><\/iframe><script>\n\/*!
