and while standing in a chair above the scene with the P-47 in one hand, I would spin the prop with the other (with camera in hand also) then quickly shoot a photo. This can be very tricky with plane in one hand, camera in the other, standing in a chair, and trying to photograph. I had to do this many times to get the ones I wanted (and I only fell out of the chair once!^&grin: just kidding). Actually I did all this without falling out of the chair. Please do not try this at home as this was performed by a "want to be professional photographer" and should not be attempted especially without adult supervision>.^&grin^&grin^&grin
Simon, Wayne is correct on this. The 21st Century plane's props all spin (and the P-47 is probably the one that spins the best of them all:smile2

Kudos mate, it's a spectacular effect and works brilliantly (well done for the guess Wayne! ^&grin).
I'll slap on the axle grease (prop, not me, I'm not that weird......well.....) and go for the 'extreme sport photography' method and give it a go. If you don't here from me for the next week or so, it's because I should have listened to my wife's nagging about getting the chair leg tightened up.
Duke, would love to see what you can do with K&C's wooden Dambuster Lancaster, a camera and a pogo stick.
