X- Craft Mono

Posted an image of these before, but had another attempt during the day and went for mono as getting into B&W quite a bit now.

 

Long exposure to try and bring a different take to these old x-craft from World War II that are slowly rotting on the beach at Aberlady Bay.

 

This location is definately a tide out only as the flats are pretty level so you could get cut off quite easily.

 

These are mini subs that carried only 2 people so they are pretty small.

 

Added noise to skies as suggested previously but still having banding issues especially in mono Long Exposure shots. Adding the noise layer doesn't seem to help in many circumstances. I have tried several options, but can't see to get rid of it so any advice appreciated on how to darken skies without introducing banding. If I left the sky as it was I wouldn't encounter this problem so maybe that's the answer..
