The historic airplanes – a Douglas C-47 and a Douglas C-54 – displayed at the Airlift Memorial near Frankfurt Airport invited some abstract photography. The white cloud (one of my favourite lighting situations) also helped.

That first photo, wow! Sharp! In every sense of that word —
Thank you, Judith!
I really like the first photo that has a bit more detail; the second one is abstract at its best.
Thank you, Angeline. The first one looks more balanced to my eye (and I like the second one too, but not as immediately) – the pairing much appealed to me though … however, I am truly happy you are dalighted by No. 2.
