Fine Art Portfolio | Spartan Executive Notice the line of sunset light reflection cutting through the fuselage. No, it’s not a wrinkle in the aluminum; it’s light reflection on the polished aluminum plane. Black & white helps accentuate the planes lines.
The Back Story My second year at the Blakesburg AAA Fly-in ended with a few long exposure images. This image was captured just before the last rays of sunset light faded on the first day of the fly-in. For a still shot in fading light, this image required numerous clicks for getting the nice combination of light, exposure, and angle. They were captured without a tripod, but with steady hands and the patience to capture numerous images.
