Aurora, Oregon
I was captivated by the unique challenge of capturing this historic aircraft. I chose a vertical composition to accentuate the towering presence of the propeller and engine – elements I found particularly striking for their blend of power and beauty.
In black and white, the photograph transforms into a timeless piece, evoking the classic era of aviation. This choice was intentional, aiming to strip away the distractions of color and focus on the raw, unadorned power of the aircraft. The contrasts and textures highlight the intricate details of the propeller and the robust structure of the engine.
The stillness of the propeller, poised in silent anticipation, and the dormant power of the engine, spoke volumes about the journeys and stories embedded in its frame. A tribute to the legacy of aviation, a moment frozen in time that encapsulates the enduring spirit and beauty of flight.
