As a former Aerofilms librarian I must admit this was one of my favourite photos in the archive. Given that it was taken from a moving 'plane it's astonishingly well composed, and is (of course) a very un-Aerofilms kind of photo. I'm lucky to have a hand-printed 15" x 12" print which one of the lab boys did for me - must get it framed . . . . |
