48 Hour Photo Comp: Monochrome
48 Hour Photo Comp: Monochrome
OK, this may be a little outside the comfort zone for some, but I'm looking for your best monochrome aviation photographs. These can be close-ups or wide angle shots and don't have to specifically be of an aircraft - but it has to be aviation related. I will allow selective colour photos if the photo is predominantly one colour. Sepia toning, etc is also allowed.
As usual, maximum of 3 pics per entry. Good luck!

First up, a Strike Eagle speeding through LFA7.
Secondly, an arty shot from the RAF Museum with the air brakes of the Bristol 188 framing the TSR2.
Finally, USAF Heritage Flight in dramatic skies over Oshkosh in 2012.

Re: 48 Hour Photo Comp: Monochrome
Thanks to all those that entered, I did wonder if many would enter this comp as we don't usually see many monochrome shots on the forum. As usual, the standards are high and choosing a winner is not an easy task!
Special mentions to:
Sarah for her Just Jane shot
Andrew's Piper shot
TJJ's re-enactor photo
PeterR's Eagle shot
It was very difficult to separate my top three, but there has to be a winner and so my top three are:
3rd: Draken's DC-3 from below - really nice contrast and an unusual perspective
2nd: Seamus' Vixen shot - nice head-on viewpoint and the contrast really shows off the gloss finish
1st: LNStrikeEagle's Sea Fury shot which fills the frame nicely and also shows off the gloss finish well
Over to you Dan!

Re: 48 Hour Photo Comp: Monochrome
Just a Thought. Maybe exclude mods from this. While the pics are amazing (Dan's is fantastic). It does seem like pass the parcel.
