Hangar 1

I will post another shot of this one in color taken from the back, but I liked the way this looks with the 1911 Wright Flyer sitting beside it and a replica of the original Wright Flyer hanging above it. This HDR was tonemapped in B&W and then I bummped up the black just a bit to get better definition. LYLE

Cleared for Flight

This is a 5 capture HDR tonemapped in natural compression. These were real men pioneering the art of flight, can you imagine sitting on something like this and going airborne with it? It is a 1911 Wright Flyer. I took the shots looking between the rear stabilizers. I get the impression that he has been checked out for flight and is getting out of the hangar so he can get underway. I shot this at f/22 with my 18-105. The steps were set at -0.3 EV, one f-stop apart. The setting was in the Aerospace Museum at Hill AFB, Ogden, UT. LYLE
