It's an Avro Lancaster Heavy Bomber.

The camera settings are well established and have produced a high-resolution image of good contrast, and monotonal range... Bob

Strong entry. Interesting initial impact. Black and white overtones in varying hues. Complements the mood of the image. Good luck in the contest!

Excellent in flight image and entry into contest.
The clouds must have opened up at the right time to get the bomber as it manoeuvres through the sky.

A very powerful visual presented here of this bomber plane. They bring back the days when my father was in the army. Your composition, shades, tones and colours are very well done and presented. Thank you for sharing.

I really wonder how you managed to take this photo since you seem to be higher than the plane when the photo was taken. I especially like that the photo is presented in b&w, and also how well the plane is standing out from the background.

The photo is also sharp showing clear and well defined details in every part of the plane, and the exposure is very good.

I also like the format you have cropped the photo into, and that you have given the plane room to move into. It is a great looking and well taken photo with an excellent DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

A good looking image presented here into the competition! Your fine and classical composition offers us an enjoyable view of, what I think is Lancaster Bomber. Textures, colours and tones are fine. Exposure and sharpness are good. Well done and good luck!
