Multiple exposure photography of airliner landing in Boston. How I did it.

by markadmin Posted: Monday, 10/19/2015

I have received questions about my settings for this type of photograph. The first photo, at top, was photographed last night, Sunday October 18, at 6:06pm. It is Aer Lingus flight EIN 139, a Dublin to Boston Airbus A330. I used a Canon camera and a 100-400mm lens at 176mm. Speed was ISO/ASA 1000. Shutter speed 1/400th of a second at F5 aperture.
I set the camera fire 5 bursts on the same frame. A 5 multiple exposure photo, with each snap at 1.2 second intervals. A tripod is a must as the city skyline will actually be photographed 5 separate, and thus has to be lined up the same each time.  
The bottom photo, a 6 image multiple exposure, was snapped on Saturday night at 5:49pm. ISO/ASA 320 with a lens of 200mm. Shutter speed of 1/320th of a second at F5, with a 1.5 second interval between snaps. These photo are a lot of fun, especially when the wind kicked up and the jet lands somewhat sideways.

The Challenged Athletes Foundation presented their Össur Running and Mobility Clinic yesterday at the Boston Sports Club in South Boston. Dozens of people, wearing prosthetics, including Jane Richard and Heather Abbott, survivors of the 2013 Boston Marathon attacks, took part in the calisthenics-filledevent. The Heather Abbott Foundation presented a grant to Kori Tickel, n 8-year-old girl Somerset,MA. girl who lost a leg in a lawnmower accident. Tickel, the Abbott Foundation’s 2nd recipient, received a special prosthesis designed to help her run and play. Below are my captioned photos from Saturday’s event.
