This is gorgeous! And I had no idea these aircraft had so many extra control surfaces. Trim tabs galore!
Thank you, John. I wanted to photograph these birds in a slightly different way. There are many angles it seems. It also appears that with more surfaces controls they tend to be more maneuverable. I watched some of these aircraft in maneuvers that would leave me an empty stomach if I was aboard but enjoyable from the ground.
I love the angle of this shot! You never see this perspective of plane photographed – great capture!
Constance, thank you. I kept looking at these planes to find some way to photograph them differently. One of the challenges was that they all were parked very close together.
You have really captured the metallic tone of the plane.
Thank you for your comment and stopping by my blog. Best, with your teaching and continued positive development of photography both in capturing and post production.

Lovely photo and great title.
Thank you.
Great capture!
Thank you.
Wonderful angle!
Great B/W. Wonderful cropping.
Thank you. This was framed in the camera. I had a clear sense of what I wanted from this image. I like planes as indicated from previous images. But I keep trying to find new ways of looking at them. Thanks again for liking images and following my blog.
Hellcat? Excellent pic.. 🙂
Thanks Ed. I’m not sure about the aircraft. This was two years ago and I don’t have the brochure.
The folding wings kind of give it away.
Thanks Ed.
