In 1991 my husband was a serving airman in the RAF. He was sent to the Middle East during the first Gulf War. This image is based on the photographs that he took at that time…
With a much larger effective range and payload delivery capability than a mere Paper Fighter jet, the Paper Jet Bomber can deal untold damage from the sky. ....such damage consisting of papercuts, mostly. (hey, they hurt!)

Sheltering from an air raid during world war two…from my original primitive/naive acrylic painting
I have converted this image to black and white and darkened it a little in order to create the atmosphere of the period which would have been about 1943. Most of the Lancaster’s raids were carried out at night, and this shot depicts flying under moonlight. This was unwelcomed by the bomber crews as it made them highly visible to enemy night fighters. Technical Details: Camera: Nikon D200 / Lens: 18-200mm f3.5 / Focal Length: 200mm / ISO: 200 / Exposure: 1/500 sec at f /11 / Post Processing: Photoshop CS3 © 2007 John Hooton Photography
The neighbourhood didn’t seem to much notice the gathering storm but we heard it when the battering ram was used to smash in the apartment door after shouts to surrender went unheeded. A few shouts and some running towards the building (the one under the construction tape) was the only very hurried part of what had to be a major operation. At this point, there was still nothing to see. By the way, I used the telephoto to catch all the shots because I wasn’t quite as dumb as the two girls standing close and looking like they’d never watched TV before… (Stay tuned. More to come!)
Sometimes we find one of its small drawing on a piece of paper into an old notepad … scanner + Photoshop … and the design is on a t-shirt. I hope that you enjoy.
Capt. John Davis and Bombardier Lt. Carl Thompson are walking passed their bird to meet the rest of the boys for a few beers. Both can faintly hear music and laughter of men spilling from a tent near the end of the runway. Davis looks back into the setting sun, listens to the big radial engines still ticking from an earlier test flight. The distinct smell of burnt oil still lingers in the air. / “God I love that smell” he thinks to himself. / He gazes down upon the puddles of oil underneath the port and starboard engines. / “Hey, does it look like engine one is leaking more than usual?” John asks, turning to Carl who had his half smoked cigarette in the corner of his mouth. / “It’s been leaking more since Frankfurt”, Carl replies. / “Frankfurt? Yeah, I think you’re right”. Davis can still hear the screams of the waistgunner, when the shrapnel tore through the entire port side. / “Poor Sammy, he never had a chance”, Davis says. / Carl didn’t reply, just walked quietly next to John, the setting sun throwing long shadows onto the tarmac, making them both look like giants. / Both men knew that tonight they indeed feel larger than life, because there is no mission tonight.

Shot near Point Hallswell, Wellington Harbour at dawn, the light was superb, I’d gone to shoot sunrise on the coast and the weather was nasty, came back into the harbour and got this light, sunrise is straight through those clouds, the effect is like soft Paua shell, what the image doesn’t is that if I turned the right it would have been soaked by sea spray in the wind. Shot on a Nikon D700, Nikkor 17-35mm Lens f2.8 Other work in this series / Fantail Wave / Soft Paua Dawn / Wave Wraith

I had a completely different idea when I started this design but it ended up light this. My original Idea will follow but might take alot longer.
