airplane graveyard

Hi, I went by an airplane graveyard outside St. Augustine today, something really neat to see if you're ever in the area. some guy keeps these old navy planes in his yard. will post the series soon, but was wondering if you prefer the black and white or color? I will likely follow the same theme for the series.
Thanks for your input.

The guy must have a big yard

Can't decide if I like the BW or Color better as I like them both. Color tho gives you much more to see in the photo. Then again BW adds a mood to the death of the plane.

Can't wait to see more

B&W - add a bit more contrast and a little grain and you'll have a winner!

Thanks, I think I like the B&W better, too. I went back this morning for some additional shots. I didn't have my strobe with me yesterday, and didn't feel the series would be complete without a shot inside the cockpit of one of the planes. BTW, I didn't see any No Trespassing signs on the barbed wire fence I'll post some more in a few days when I've processed them.

Hi Chris,

Nice shot...I think I like the color version the best. In years past, I shot a bunch of photos of this guy's planes. way before the undergrowth got so bad. He also used to have more planes then are there now.

cool shot...don't see many things like that round my way.

I prefer the B&W. Would dropping the greens and yellows in the mix bring out the plane a bit more?
