Brilliant colour shot. Just love the shimmer you’ve captured.
any relation to Billy Mitchell, the military aviator?

Alas no, no bombers named after me!
Excellent take of the B25. – Ted
Nice work – almost looks unreal!!

Great shot, like the way it is cropped and the colour saturation.
Great image! Thanks for submitting it to Solo Exhibition. Excellent choice.
Let’s try this again…I posted a reply about a minute ago and it simply vanished. I’m glad you enjoyed this image and I hope there’s enough in the 12 images I submitted to warrent a solo show…If you would like to do the exhibit and keep to a warm orange/red motif, I can back out the 3 non orange/red images and replace them with ones that fit the orange/red color scheme. Thanks for hosting…we all get the benefits of your time…thanks

Colin…superb aircraft and I appreciate the comment. Really is a work of art even though it’s a weapon…certain irony in that.
