Moonlight on a Crashed Aeroplane

As usual I was on my way home from work.... nah not true. I got inspired by my fridge shots of a car so I thought I would give it a real go to create a full on set in the fridge. Subject was a crashed Aeroplane (which I thought worked well given the icy landscape) I had visions of the rather famous crash in the Andes. I was also painting with light to give it a more realistic "moonlight" feel. Click on the image for a larger on black photograph, C&C most welcome.

Plane doesn't look damaged enough. I could lend you a hammer. :) . And if the moonlight was strong enough to light the plane that well the stars would also be out so the effect would be better with a starry "sky"

The aeroplane cost me $45 so I don't plan to hit it with a hammer. :) However, here are a few more shots

Rest can be seen here I am pretty sure I will add to the miniatures. I am enjoying myself with them.

I like the idea. The images are nice and sharp, and the shallow DOF gives an impression of size.

I think you need some small figurines dressed in soccer outfits eating each other though :wink:

The last one is my favourite - seems the most 'realistic' (without damaging the plane :) )
