A Curtiss P-40 Warhawk displayed with the engine canopy open for view at The Wings Over Wine Country Airshow in Santa Rosa, CA in 2011.
I found this an intriguing study of shape and color. I chose to enhance these attributes through composition and a unique viewing angle. During processing I modified clarity, shadow detail and color saturation to complete the image.
Note of the original 13,738 P-40s built only about 19 are in airworthy condition. Others are being honored as static displays and more are in various stages of restoration.
