    Don't Come Any Closer

    This is the port waist gun of a B-17. I liked the reflection on the skin of the aircraft. Thought about trying to clone out the prop, but wasn't sure if it would make any improvement. C & C welcome.

    For me the prop needs to be there to help me know what I'm looking at. Nice shot, Jeff

    I like this a lot. The prop is distracting to me and I would clone it out.

    You can see it in the reflection which for my eye would be good enough.
    It's not blurry. It's bokeh.

    I also find it a bit distracting the focus to me is on the gun and my eye keeps getting drawn down to the prop. Nice photo all the same.

    Thanks for the input. I appreciate your comments. I'll see if I can clone that prop out in a different version.
