Anne Millbrooke's comments:
| 039
- Walking into the belly of history, up close and personal; an eye-view
captured on film; "fact and date remain the spine and belly of history" - Desmond Greaves |
| 026
- Geometry in metal, variety of patterns in balance; "whether
or not a mathematician knew a better class of circles" - Bin
Ramke's poem "Gravity and Levity" |
| 010
- Shining metal plane in flight; unique view, the picture like the
plane is taking the viewer somewhere unseen; "And what is this
truth that holds the grey shaking metal whole while we believe in it?" - John Tranter's poem "Lufthansa" |
| 028
- Bird's eye view of those who "Take up our quarrel with the
foe:/ To you from failing hands we throw/ The torch; be yours to hold
it high./ If ye break faith with us who die/ We shall not sleep, though poppies grow/ In Flanders fields." - John McCrae |
| 020 - Literally seeing the power behind the prop |
| 038 - Roll on; excellent composition leads the viewer from the dark wheels on the ground up into the sky |
| 035 - Whirling prop, power runup on the ground, good color |
| 030 - These lights, like eyes waiting to light up |
| 005 - Together: "We came from home, my plane and I." - Harriet Monroe |
| 022 - Bullseye |
| 011 - Old hats at this flying thing |
| 012 - Stationary prop set colorful plane |
