Re: Prop blur, what are your thoughts.
I've considered an ND filter myself but to date haven't really felt the need because I can use my polariser for a bit of the ND effect. My best advice (which I was handing out yesterday at our event where the PdF appeared). I'm pretty sure there are lots of ways people do it but I'll tell you what w...

Re: Aero 150 Airshow - April 30 - Gatineau, Quebec
It wasn't fun waiting it out but as I said to the friend that went with me if we'd have had that same day in the fall we would have thought we were freezing & given up but after enduring winter it wasn't so bad. Thankfully it looks like rain drops on the lenses didn't ruin any of the photos but ...

Re: Aero 150 Airshow - April 30 - Gatineau, Quebec
As it stands right now 1 day is better than no event. Also having stayed up to date with the parking suggestions the fields we normally get to use are too soft so we're going to use on street parking that would already be in use by the local businesses etc. Most of those are closed for Sunday freein...

The most recent update for the Air Show (roughly 9:30 AM local time using Facebook) is. "There is no public access to the airfield on Saturday as we prepare for the Sunday show. In the event of rain Sunday, the show is still on - performances will be modified to suit the weather conditions."

Re: 2017 Patrouille de France Flyovers
This may be wishful thinking based on the forecast for Monday but I'm sure hoping the weather holds off for both Sunday & Monday.
