Should be a great shot, but isn't quite there. Looks more grey than B&W. Could have cropped the top down to the Lt - would have concentrated me more on your subject than on the canopy.
Great capture, I dont know why but somehow the airman on the right seems to epitomise all that is good about armed forces...Strong yet compassionate. Lovely
You have hit pretty much everything I look for in a good candid. The lighting is right, you can see the subject's face, the shot is clear and well composed, and we don't have to guess what's going on. One look at the shot, and we know the story. Great job.
