Wonderful..a lovely high key portrait..and dare I say it.. a competition winner if ever I saw one...Testing my new Sony A7C 35mm f1.8 and Luminar Ai software (used a mask to remove the background and converted to B&W).

Blimey! Thank you.
To be honest, I hardly ever post, or even look in the photography section of PFM. My only reason for having a camera is to capture family moments (holidays and special occasions). I set my camera up to how I like and don't really mess with the controls much. I'm more of a point and shoot type of person - so it's nice to know I've captured something good - especially when the skill level is so high here.
Perhaps I should try and enter it into a competition? I wouldn't know where to enter it though.
Like the establishing shots from 'Twelve O'clock High'.
A lone tree grows beside the crumbling taxiway, RAF Little Walden, August 2021. The USAAF flew A20-Havocs and P-51 Mustangs out of here in 1944/45.

Lovely.
I used to pass through Little Walden airfield quite often when we lived near Stansted. On a hot day it had a lovely atmosphere about it. I was in love with the control tower…
A truly great film, somewhat forgotten, acknowledged as a groundbreaking study into the psychology of combat and command. The writers, Sy Bartlett and Beirne Lay, both served with the 8th Airforce in the UK, the latter flying combat missions with the 'Bloody 100th' out of Thorpe Abbotts, later returning to command the 487th BG flying B-24s out of Lavenham. That establishing sequence is superb, and strikes a deep emotional chord.
