Official Birthday Portrait 2008

This is not the portrait I wanted. She is wearing a bright red Lone Star Flight Museum shirt and I wanted to photograph her in the red shirt inside the B17. Unfortunately she was not able to board the plane in spite of all the good intentions and help from the crew. She did not get to make the flight but she gave it a good effort.

 

I loved the sky background and the color harmony of the image. I feel that the darkness adds a little of the disappointment experienced. Even so, we had a good day watching the planes and made the best of the ocassion.

Waiting to board the B17 for a Birthday Flight.

Superb and artistic photo mi piace molto bravo...........

ciao alex da milano.italy

Alessio, Thank you very much.

Gary, this one looks better than the one you placed on Flickr...great shot. Everytime I look at this, I feel so sad for her, I wish she could have flown on that B-17.
