also, what setting did you use to make the prop look like that and not look like they are powered off?
great pic, my favorite plane!!

nicholastoto5, a shutter speed of 1/250 second will get you a nice blur on the props. The lower the shutter speed the more blur!

Glad you like it! As for the camera and settings, I shot this on my Nikon D7200 using my Tamron SP 70-300mm lens. I was shooting at 1/400s, f/8 and ISO 100 and was zoomed to 230mm. And as Mark stated, with prop aircraft you want to shoot for 1/250th or slower to achieve that blur, but the slower shutter speed also makes it harder to get everything else sharp, so it is a balancing act.
