As you can tell by my avatar I love WWII aircraft. I love the pictures but I think they are over cooked. Too much HDR in my opinion. Cheers.

I agree with you. I thought they were drawings.

The hdr-affect, coupled with the cloud cover, really make the planes pop! Nicely done.

Nice photo's - I like the perspective and the finished results...
My father flew the 24 out of Italy - I've had the opportunity to climb around inside of them and see what they are made of... Men of steel and airplanes of metal...

I really like the interior shot of the B-24.

Way back in the 90's, I was waiting for my escort to arrive at the Boeing plant in Seattle. Standing there next to the Boeing Field runway when I hear this amazing roar as a B-24 takes off and stately flies over the hills. Never forgot that.

Wow! It's very rare to see a P-51B still in flying condition!
Thanks for sharing!

I've actually had a ride in that very B-24. My dad was the Armorer on one in WWII flying missions out of Italy.
