I used to use a red filter for B&W and Infrared photography and wondered what it would do with color transparency film. May be too much red for some, but I liked the effect on this particular shot.
I agree with Jery ... it would be a fantastic subject for an abstract painting Mike! --Love and Light, Olga

this is great, it looks like a toned b&w except for the sun. would make a nice poster!
I tried the same experiment many years ago. Took a picture of a flight line of F-4 jets with the sun going down behind them. It was the Apocalypse!
Not too much red for me in this one. Sweet.
Artist Reply: I would love to see that picture of the Phantoms! Thanks for stopping by to have a look and leaving your encouraging comment. Appreciated.
Dramatic effect especially with the contrast of the sun. Really nice!
Artist Reply: Thank you so much Mike. This image isn't getting a lot of hits, so I'm second-guessing my decision to put it up. I appreciate your encouragement.
