The Machine
Posted in Helsinki on Jan 25th, 2008 5 Comments »
This week’s topic on Photo Friday was ‘The Machine’. I haven’t yet checked what the others have posted as response to this challenge, but I would guess we’ll see many car pictures as well as some strong animal. I wanted to try something different (since my car collection is pretty small among other things) and chose photograph about engine of an airplane. To be more precise engine of Dakota airplane. This particular airplane is called ‘Dakota Norway’.
Photograph was taken in Malmi Airport, when it was celebrating its 65th birthday. In addition to this airplane, they had three other Dougles DC-3/Dakotas (one from Finland, one from Sweden and one from Denmark (?)) and many other airplanes, helicopters, etc.
Technical details: Canon PowerShot G3 (28.8mm, 1/1000s, f/3, ISO50)
