PT-17 “Goliath” captured by Z 8 / Z100-400f4.5-5.6
The PT-17 “Goliath” is kinda of a legendary flying aircraft. I saw it for the first time just a week ago and the first thing that struck me was, that color! I wanted to accomplish two things in the photograph, communicate its name “Goliath” and make the color burn in your vision. The answer to both questions was accomplished in one action, lying down! Yeah, I went prone on the grass. That angle of looking up on Goliath made it have a more prominent stance on the taxiway. At the same time, that angle took in some green grass and more blue sky, those colors make the orange eye popping even more so. It was that simple to pop the color.
