AV-8B Harrier

An American development of a much earlier Hawker Siddeley and British Aerospace design, this is the McDonnell Douglas AV-8B Harrier. Seen here at their East Coast base, at MCAS Cherry Point, North Carolina.

 

With this shot I was trying to simulate a nighttime photo (even though it was about five in the afternoon) by going manual, and bumping the aperture and the shutter speed well up, to intentionally underexpose the majority of the image. In color it was pretty dull (as if I'd just badly underexposed it) but when I changed to monochrome, it seems to change the 'mood'.
