It’s no secret I’m really into backgrounds. Nor a secret I’m really into clouds (as my bud McNally<\/a> calls me, Dances with Clouds). When you combine those two thoughts to aviation, you then not only give the subject a place in space, but influence the story you’re telling with your photos. Here are two examples of what I’m talking about, taken literally just seconds apart as the B-17 made a pass during the recent Oshkosh airshow. It was part of one of the Tora Tora Tora shows, representing the flight of B-17s coming into Pearl as the Japanese attacked.

Then as the B-17 continues it’s run, it’s in front of simply pretty clouds and that relates a totally different feeling telling a totally different story. And finally it comes up to the infamous Tora Tora Tora “wall of fire” smoke and than there is not question a battle is going on.

Paying attention to backgrounds, even to the slightest change can totally influence your story!<\/p>\n It’s no secret I’m really into backgrounds.
