I like the colors and perspective

Nice capture Jeff. In addition to what has been said below is that the 'mess' below the plane is great.

It's so fun to see how the LB can set still objects in motion.

That LB effect does give the sense the rotors are spinning. The close-in composition accentuates the effect, I think, you aren't so distracted by the environment around the plane. Are you in the DC area?

I feel like I'm a duck that's about to be hit by a plane, nice perspective and use of the lens for an action feel.

Great shot. Great colors. It does have a feeling of flying right at you.

I was going to say something similar to what ubique said - it is a right in your face perspective. Some radial blur on the prop and I might expect to be chopped to pieces! :)

I like this... You should photoshop yourself in the cockpit.

This almost makes me think the propellors are moving. Isn't that a fantastic part of the museum? :~)

Smack! That really hits you right between the eyes, doesn't it? I like this a lot, and I especially like the presence of the near-jumble of aviation stuff visible behind; a wing, some national markings and other unidentifiable items. This makes the plane in front look as if it is leaping right out of the pages of history. Appropriately enough. It'd make a pretty good poster for the Smithsonian.

Oh, nearly forgot ... the Lensbaby is of course perfect for this, and really animates the aircraft.
