A Black & White Morning

The other morning, Miki and I went out for an early morning walk.  It was almost directly opposite from the day before, when the sunrise was incredibly vivid.  This morning, there was a softer light, and the sunrise was already over when we got out there.  A totally different feel to the day, as you can see...
 
 
As we passed the FBO (Fixed Base Operator), I noticed this plane.  It seems its flying days are over, and to capture the feeling of days gone by, I converted this image to black and white and then cropped it with a bit of a tattered look.

 
I noticed some patchy dried grass in another area, and liked the way the dirt was visible in places.  I added a sepia filter to this to capture the feel that I wanted, and again did a tattered crop.

 
Since the light was so soft and  there wasn't much color otherwise in the image, I again converted this to a black and white image to accentuate the contrast and applied the tattered crop again.
 
Enjoy!
