I attached the paper airplane to my camera with a whire to move them together and get the speed effect.
The photo:
- Convert to B&W
- Set the brightness to -80
- Set the Contrast to 25
- Crop the picture (2518 * 1678)
- Sharpen and Resize

Love the idea but it was difficult at first to know what this was. A little less contrast, a little less grain and having the full plane in view would improve it. Nice shot that was probably very tough to get.
Having some association with the aviation industry, I thought this was a great photo. Wish it wasn't too grainy/noisy. I think perhaps NeatImaging or softening the picture might help improve it a bit. Also, won't hurt to have the background be more streaky in order to show more movement, in my opinion. Great choice on making it in grayscale, it's very fitting. Good job!
It does fit the challenge, but not strongly I think. I wouldn't look at this photo and think "silence". I like the shot itself, although grainy (maybe intended that way?) The composition and the motion blur are very nice.
like the idea of silent flight, creative, but I don't get any real feeling of movement, even with the blur..I think it's the grain effect, makes the plane blend too much and makes it hard to separate it clearly from the background. 4.
