Any idea on how close to the chain link fence I need to blur it out? I can shoot this with a 70-200 f2.8.


Comment, critique appreciated!

Great work. I was waiting for 665US to hopefully come in during daylight today at DTW to see the new colors but unfortunately it is coming in really late. Revenue flights start on Tuesday from DTW to Narita, so I will have it sooner or later.

I like #2 the best.

I really like #2 as well. You can see the trails behind the engines.

Nice set of photos. You'll probably have to get right up to it to blur the fence out.

As close to the fence as you can get mate.. literally :)

They feel a little overexposed to me too. But that last shot would be awesome with no fence in the shot!! Some great action there

Thanks for the comments guys. Yeah I figured I need to be right up to the fence to blur it out. I am a bit concerned about the Federal law stating keep six feet away!

I struggled a bit on my post processing, hopefully next time we will have better light.
