Old vs New

200mm · f/5.6 · 1/1250s · ISO 200

This old B-25 flew right overhead on a mostly overcast day with the sun only glimpsing through near the horizon.

Due to the extreme contrast on the shiny metal surfaces I had to deal with the strong noise in the shaded areas. Instead of trying to compensate the noise I decided to embrace it, washing out the colors and shifting it in a more sepia-ish direction did the heavy-lifting while some added grain and a darkened vignette to emphasize the center added the conceptual detail to further the desired "old" appearance.
