Beech Under Repair...

Beech Under Repair...

The prop of a 1958 Beechcraft Super E18S (Twin Beech) under maintenance in Santa Paula. Each engine is rated at 450 HP. Only about 400 of this model plane were built, so this truly is a piece of history in our backyard. Santa Paula's South Mountain SP landmark, carved by high school students in 1922 and restored for the city's centennial in 2002 is visible in the background. Photographer: Guy Shaham.

Guy A couple people asked me if this is HDR (High Dynamic Range, where you "sandwich" multiple images), however this is not an HDR image. I used a remote controlled strobe to add light to the lower portion of the engine, which removed some of the shadows created by the noon-time sun.
