This is a fine shot. As a challenge you may want to try shooting with a slower shutter speed to get some nice propeller blur. You won't get as many keepers but the ones that are will have more spectacular and satisfying results. Just my 2d.
Thanks Steve, he was flying a display with a Typhoon fighter jet at the time so was trying to get the balance between prop blur and the faster jet.This is a fine shot.

Prop blur is a subjective issue. There isn't an accepted ideal for the amount prop blur that is achieved. There have been debates on aviation forums about whether just a little blur, the full ring, or anywhere in between is the best amount, everyone seems to have a different take on it.

Thank you Lee532 for reviving old memories.
Fantastic pictures of some old friends. I was stationed at RAF Coltishal when the BBMF were based there. Much of the unit would come to a halt just to listen to the "music of the merlins".
