Description
Bear with me, I am experimenting with some new (to me) possibilities in Photoshop. My aim here was to reduce the Dayton museum clutter in the background and foreground to almost nothing but still leave a trace of it to provide context for the photo.
Also played with ways to light just the aircraft and it worked!
For all: This is a very rare German Focke-Wulf Fw 190D-9 surrendered at Flensberg in Northern Germany at the end of hostilities in May 1945.
For Aviation enthusiasts and/or others of you who love details and trivia, read THIS PAGE and gander at the restoration pictures at the bottom of it.
Note: Rob (debbielove) will be uploading this aircraft in the future...tried to make my presentation different. Hope I haven't stolen your thunder Rob!
Bill:)
