Awesome Shots!
Can you share with us how you processed the B&W shots?

Especially the DC3. It is fabulous and I'd love to be able to do that to my B&Ws
Thanks for sharing those treasures!

Hi Dave

Sure no problem Im away from home at the moment but I will post the exact settings I used in LR4 when I get back..

But basically I just convert to black and white.. then adjust the B&W mix in the B&W HSL tab to taste

Then I upped the clarity slider to around 40 or 50 and set the black slider to around 10 or so...

Then I used a grad filter on the sky set to around -0.80 or there abouts

And finally some dodging & burning in photoshop..

Hi John

The plane in #14 is a Hawker Sea Fury

It was developed right at the end of the war and is probably one of the ultimate piston fighters ever developed..
But the jet engine dealt the fatal blow to this one
