This one is also from the Aviation Museum- it's a collection of cameras used in WWII.
Nice processing

How interesting. Did you give his its vintage look or was that how they were displayed?

Thank you Lynda, Kerri, Alta, Sally, Nicole, Katy, and Kathy!

@salza Yes- they are large, but I think mostly due to what they were used for- taking photos from airplanes scoping out enemy territory. You needed those long lenses to get the photos of the land.

@randystreat The lighting gave off a somewhat yellowish hue, but I did add a painterly effect to the shot as well giving it that vintage feel.

Thanks so much everyone- it was pretty interesting to see these. My d-i-l's grandfather was a photographer for the air force in the South Pacific during WWII. These are the kinds of cameras he'd have been working with.
