Since I was a bachelor this weekend spent some quality time standing in a bean field and on the side of the highway. POTn'ers inspired me to try new things. So here is a set of a nice B-17 "Yankee Lady" operated by Yankee Air Museum.

The silver plane surface played havoc with my metering. Comments/critique appreciated.

Very nice series...

#3 and #4 are very nice. #4 would work well as an "aged" shot as it reminds me of a B17 returning to home base in WWII...

It's always nice to see her in the air! I may try the bean field route next year.

Good series. Exposure looks good on my monitor.
