Yes, it is a strobe effect between the rotation speed of the propellers and 1.) The frame rate of a digital camera, and 2.) Curved propellers because the top part of the digital image is scanned out of the sensor a bit different than the other part of the frame.
There's all kind of fun effects a good photographer can achieve with this!

Is that propeller distortion an effect of photography (some sort of strobe artifact) or is it just CGI?
