Description
...this would be an impossible shot. It is a photo manipulation:)
First, you'd have to go back to some time between June 6, 1944 and May 8, 1945. Second, you'd have to be wing walking. Third, you'd have to be prepared to parachute to safety.
What is this? A German Junkers Ju 52 transport that I photographed sitting quietly on the airport at the Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio in June 2009 and a P-51B Mustang that I photographed at Arlington, Washington 13 months later.
To add a bit of realism I added motion blur to the two props on the Ju 52 and lens flares to the wings of the P-51.
Amazing what can be done with two unusable pictures when you combine them and add a wee bit of imagination:)

You may be just too humble to admit to the wing walking, and all that. ;o) Otherwise, it's a great image, and one to remember.
