Potpourri Galore | Piper Cub on Skis Taxiing

Potpourri Galore | Piper Cub on Skis Taxiing   Ski Plane Weekend is always fun and usually very cold.  To see the entire story, go to Ski Plane Weekend | a 7 Image Story.  Of course, the difficulty to capturing good airplane images in the winter with snow, is to keep the shutter speed low enough to blur the prop and pan well enough to keep the wings and fuselage in sharp focus while dealing with bright, hard mid-day light.  A 1/125s shutter speed is about as high as I like for a click like this one.   Note: I post an image most days at hankconrad.com.
