No Way Out

Been working on this one as background task for a while. (See earlier posts on the B17 flight via the Collings Foundation). When I took it I didn't even realise that seagull had flown by and it was only after I got home and uploaded them that I saw the happy accident. So much for artistic skill and planning, then.

After a basic B/W conversion, curves and sharpening stuff, the thing I've been holding out on the longest is the cropping. I think this one works best, but including all that turret in here is still something I go back and forth on.

Comments always welcome!
