    Good shots of the good ol' Beaver - or, is it an Otter? Whatever, makes me want to go to Alaska and do some bush flying.

    Good shots. ...but aren't #1 and #3 the same - or am I missing the difference?

    Thanks,

    I tried to delete one of the images, but had no luck, Richard.

    This is a Turbo Otter. It is considerably larger than a Beaver.

    Paul I removed the duplicate image for you. I think your shots are great. The only thing that I believe would make them significantly better would be to have more prop blur. You will need to shoot at about 1/250" or even slower to get some good blur from these planes. This will of course mean you have to use an effective panning technique or they will be soft. The shot I attached above was shot at 1/200". I do like the natural look to these, they are not over-processed. Very nice. Lynn yours is also very cool and has a vintage look to it.
