Description

From the Museum of Flight. I love radial engines! Their shape pleases me. This is a Boeing 80-A, for those of you who care about such things.

This looks so mechanical. Great color! It reminds me of a pencil sharpener from the inside...those old kind grade school teachers always had screwed to their desks. I don't think they have those any more. I like that shape and this looks like the inside of one. I love the shine and the propeller just looming there.

Going way back in aircraft lore for this one. Interesting POV and high contrast lighting effects. Radical shot of the radial, for sure.

These are so much nicer when shown in little slices like this; again, it's a wonderful abstract, with wonderful colour and light!

OoooEeee. I'll bet this looks better today then when it was brand new in 1929 or 1930. Your POV and composition set this image apart:) Like it!

Nice job of capturing the sweet essence of the Radial engine. This is where real flight began. Nice job Tara!

Both flower-like and reminiscent of a dragonfly. Your great POV makes this a most compelling pic!

PJ has got to stop stealing my lines! It does put me in mind of a windmill. Very nice POV and exposure balance considering the very bright background.
