The pic is legit. The photographer Alfred Palmer is pretty famous for his wartime photos. It's the real deal. It looks faked because he was wayyyyy ahead of his time with light and shadow.

there are also no contrails in the sky...

I've seen 8 X10 Kodachrome (color) transparencies that were taken by ( THE Baldwin Locomotive Works and also The American Locomotive Works ) in that time frame, and the quality is EXCELLANT ! Ektachrome; not so much !
It's the real deal.

I bet that's neat/weird to see. I've only lived in the jet age.

you should be able to see the yankee warrior( B-25) fly over as you are not that far from WillowRun /yankee air museum :beerchug:
I've rubbed some polish on her a time or two, on polish day:beerchug:

Showing my age here but there was a song about Kodachrome --it was so clear. Mama dont take my Kodachrome away.....give me the nice bright colors...
