Seattle from the south, this 13 sec. exposure allowed the car lights to streak, giving this image a feeling of motion or activity, a nice change from very static images. Some times you can benefit from longer shutter speeds. Single exposure, no filters used.

First flight, on final with T-33 chase plane escort. So why f 5.6, I wanted a pretty fast shutter speed, because I was hand holding on a fast moving subject and I knew at this distance f5.6 with the 70-200 would give me the depth of field I required to get the aircraft in focus.

The 747-8 Freighter made its debut high speed taxi test this week end, look for first flight Monday the 8th, this is what I have been working on for the last 4 years and I'm looking forward to seeing her fly. Boeing still knows how to design and build pretty cool aircraft.
