The United States Navy DC plane that crashed in the black wasteland of Sólheimasandur during 1973 is a surreal sight. I did some light painting of the undercarriage with a purple filtered torch (a sweet wrapper - none of these fancy gels required) and lit the interior with a second headlight. If you look carefully you can see an eye in the first window...

Has an air brushed science fiction illustration feel but somehow avoids the naffness and inhabits an altogether more mysterious territory.

Wow!

Great shot. I have seen it shot by 'traditional' landscape photographers before showing it in a wider context but I really like the tighter viewpoint of this.
