Very well done.

Good architechture, superb geometry.

The greatest camera ever made!

Very nice Samantha, a good stark composition.

Could you expound upon this some more?

This is very interesting. Please post some more of these. I am fascinated.

Very clever Earl.

Pablo Picasso would have been proud of you Jim.

Remember when cameras were really cameras and not made of plastic?

This is far more dramatic than the previous version. Good tones and it pops out nicely on my LCD screen.

 

The Iron Laws of Photography sayeth "thou shalt never put a horizon across the center of the photo," and "thou shalt never put the subject in the center of the photo," and furthermore it commands "thou shalt never put a vertical element in the center of the photo."

 

Laws are made to be broken.

Dan, were those Pelicans manufactured by Grumman, Martin or Consolidated?

Very nice Gary, very good indeed.

No, nice and simple works best of all.

Both the model and your compositional style are exceptionlly beautiful.

I know that place!

Rob, this is really very charming.

Good composition Tim. I like the stick, it presents a bit of an enigma well worth pondering over.

Good work Tim. I am happy to see you working in 4X5 now.

 

But do not get discouraged with it. By that I mean large format is a lot of work. It takes a lot out of you working so slowly and carefully trying to produce a photo reflecting what your mind's eye sees. But the hard truth is not too many people in these digital days are going to care. It can become frustrating when you pour yourself into your unique creation only to get some stupid comment like "you should use your sharpening tool" or "why isn't it focused correctly?" --that sort of thing.

In general I disapprove of punched-up color saturation. But this is a happy exception to my usual standard and I really love how you did this.

I find this unusual perspective on the old Hurricane to be quite interesting. The forshortening does give a sleeker look to her, like she is indeed ready to leap off of the tarmac.

August, I was just about ready to offer my highest regards to the photographer for making a modern shot with the genuine look and feel as a classic vintage shot, (such things being quite rare these digital days). The I looked at the name and saw it was indeed by Mr. Kamm and "from the time."

Good work old buddy. This shows the her fine lines to this Mk VIII (I think) to the very best advantage.

A superb and sensitive portrait of natural beauty.

If the model is beautiful by her own definition, then that works for me as well. Kudos for you as the photographer for showing us an alternate version of glamour. Kudos to the model for being who she wants to be.

 

My very highest regards to both of you!
