First Pics of Udvar-Hazy Visit
In article oUU7g.1147$KB.147@fed1read08,
says...
(Envy Mode On...) Of course, in the book that they sell, the photos are all
perfect because the staff shooters had at their disposal a closed museum and
megawatts worth of flash power! (Envy Mode Off...)
They probably had 8x10" Sinar view cameras, tripods as heavy as you or me, and
used two-minute exposures!
Your shots are nice for the conditions - you're being too modest.
I like the 707 - I don't know if it's an artefact of the photographic
conditions, but the paint job, even if it's the "original" scheme doesn't look
much like a plane from that period to me - the high-gloss looks rather
"American Chopper"...
