Vintage warrior, National Aviation Museum, Pensacola, Florida, 2012

Many of the historic naval aircraft on display at the museum are poised along the tarmac of the museums own airstrip. I found this early jet fighter crouched in the shadows, and used my spot meter to expose for the bright reflection on its nose. By converting the photo to black and white, I make the plane into an abstraction, a shadow of its former fearsome self.

Yes, it does have some Nouveau curves to it, particularly in the cockpit area.

Nice - It feels like Art Nouveau.
