Aviation is one of those subject that perks my ears. They don’t actually perk, mind you, but it gets my attention. Though I rarely get an opportunity, I love to fly. Lately, that only seems to happen when I travel to a conference every few years.
Visiting the Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C. is like a sports fan going to the Baseball Hall of Fame, but better. These are the machines that propelled our country through the last century and made our world a smaller place. Some are the exact planes that made the history we read as children, while others a representative of an era now gone by. You can’t help but be in awe as you walk among these heros of our past.
Great HDR, the colors look terrific.
Thanks Kris. It’s from three images, using a table tripod, leaning against the railing.
I love how you got the view out of the windows too. I passed this one by when I was there. I wanted to make it back later, even though it would have been closed, for an outside in view. But, alas, I never made it.
Wow! I love this one! The HDR gives it almost a cartoon / surreal feeling. It reminded me of when as a teenager I loved going to the airport and watching the planes take off and land. As a matter of fact, whenever I get to fly, I love the sensations of the plane taking off and landing! And, of course, I’m always glad when the pilot is successful in achieving both of those maneuvers.
