Nikon 1 V1 Potpourri | C-185 on Skis This Cessna 185 made a nice landing on Lake Sapphire. After some coffee, a warm up, hangar flying, I was able to hitch a ride with Steve, the bush pilot owner. His C-185 wears skis in the winter, floats in the summer, and tires in between. For more information and images, go to Ski Plane Weekend | a 7 Image Story.
The Back Story The snow kicked up by the propeller and skis add to the drama. The image was captured with a simple click using shutter speed mode and selecting 1/100s to blur the propeller. Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
