 | Vintage warbirds in 1024x768 I have been playing around with Photoshop on some older, and newer images to create a vintage look with sepia. I thought I would put them up for your folks to enjoy as well.

| Other than being a little big, they look real good, Eric. The gray-scale brings out more detail, I think.. Good Job... Charles

| Thanks Charles. I tried to make them the normally smaller size I use, but I had a request for these, and I like that the details stand out better at this resolution.

| I am a big fan of B&W. I thought Sepia had more of a brown tone. I love the first two shots. Prop plans look better in B&W. DBII |

| I vary my level of sepia depending on the mood of the shot. Here is my next installment.

| Great shots. Love the polished aluminum look on that Invader. Gotta be noisy as hell inside those twins, big engines close to the cockpit. |

| Not yet. I missed AO when it was here a few years ago and bellied in at Van Nuys. It will be coming back in April here. Whether I get to go see it or not is kinda up in the air as I have a "special event" to shoot while it is here. I can't divulge any details at this point, but it will be cool. Whether it is cool, or REALLY cool remains to be seen.

| As much as I like the old cameras, I will stick with the Nikon and photoshop. Not having to setup a dark room and worry about the chemicals is a big plus for me.

  | Yeah that is the same with me Eric. Good stuff - it looks pretty much like it was done in b/w/sepia anyway and it take less time to do and they are already digital.
