Just because it's Veterans Day, a little something with a military theme. I spent many hours working on these planes before retiring. These planes were fast, over 2000 MPH, and still accelerating.

This certainly has impact, but the dark shadow under the plane I think detracts from the plane itself, I realize that you probably didn't get to choose the light conditions on this, but it would in my opinion be so much better with a rising or setting sun in front of it, lighting the under carriage and softening the shadow.

One of my favorite birds. Unfortunately, you have little control over your ground Point-of-View. I would like to see a bit of camera elevation.
I like the symmetry, but the dark under-shadow dominates the scene (draws my eye down). This image may benefit greatly from "pseudo-HDR" processing.

Or a tilt shift lens. :-)

Makes me want to walk around and investigate the rest of the airplane.Good view of a different angle.

Yes, a shift upward would have eliminated the bulbous part of the shadow and improved the composition.

Mine too, but really hard to photograph in flight. Of course they took pretty good photographs in flight!
