Photographer's Narrative

 

This image was taken while I was training a couple of public affairs Airmen on nighttime photography. This image was a mix of showing them how to do long exposure, but also if you stepped far enough back away from the plane, it would allow you to see more of the cockpit, almost as if you were level with it. Once I got into a spot I felt was the most effective in telling the story, I set the camera to a long exposure and let it go.
