Functional Beauty

I saw this as both functional and beautifully designed. What do you

think? Thanks for looking.

I don't really know if the light grouping is art. You have made art out of it, though. Exceptional things about this pic are the vivid color, the near-black near-void at bottom (would a pure black void be even better?) and the symmetrical parabolas that you set up, one in red and one in chrome. I am trying to decide whether the pic would be better if the sun did not happen to be reflected in the chrome panel; I think maybe so. But anyway, a well composed bit of geometry.

August is spot on. And, i think you have one part of an airplane i hadnt ever thought to shoot before! The saturated red looks like it was dialed up some, maybe a notch past where i would have put it... As for the sun spot, im not sure. If it wasnt there, it might be a completely different picture because of where sun had to be for the rest of the picture. Its a little distracting, but, then again, its part of the picture. Its not something i would PS at all though. But, if you can go back to reshoot this particular plane, it might be neat to try it at a different time when the spot isnt there.
