    Ha ha ha….I was thinking about how that would look and thought I just liked that golden color too much to lose it! I bet it looks very cool that way though!

  • Leslie Battjes replied

    I love the color, tones, textures and composition in this.

  • Leslie Battjes replied

    Thanks, John….I couldn’t resist this…I loved the propellor itself for its strength and shape/lines, but also the tones of metal. Glad you like it, too!

    A super shot….the brass looks terrific.

  • Leslie Battjes replied

    Thanks, Phil! If you get a chance, check out the B&W version I just posted. I’d love to hear which version you prefer!

  • Phil Deaves

    Brass is best in colour. It has a character all of its own….so my preference is for this one.

  • Leslie Battjes replied

    Thanks for checking back and comparing. I really appreciate it. It makes a difference to know where people are coming from and what works and what doesn’t! :)
