This black-and-white photograph captures an outdoor scene focused on a chain-link fence, which appears to separate the foreground from a vast field in the background. Beyond the fence, there is a metal structure resembling a navigational or communication tower, and perched above it is a silhouette of a large aircraft in flight, possibly a bomber (identified in the text as a B-52). The sky above is partly cloudy, blending with the flat horizon of the open landscape. The handwritten text at the bottom reads:

“B-52
Griffiss Air Force Base – Strategic Air Command
6 frames earlier
New York 1992
© Barbara Wolff 1992”

This text provides historical and locational context, indicating the image is documenting a B-52 flying over or near Griffiss Air Force Base in New York in 1992. The photograph appears to convey themes of military operations, aviation, or a boundary/separation concept, as highlighted by the fence.

The image is a black and white photograph capturing a B-52 jet mid-flight, juxtaposed against a chain-link fence in the foreground. Behind the fence, there is an aerial navigation aid structure mounted on wooden posts, featuring several small lights. The aircraft is positioned above the fence and navigation structure, suggesting it's in the process of takeoff or landing, which is a frequent role of B-52 jets within the Air Force's Strategic Air Command. The landscape features flat fields stretching out to the horizon with a partly cloudy sky. The photograph includes handwritten text at the bottom, identifying the scene as "B-52 Griffiss Air Force Base - Strategic Air Command, 6 Squadron review, New York 1992" and is signed by Barbara Wolf with the date "1992".

The image shows a black and white photograph of a fenced-in area with a large overhead structure and an airplane silhouetted in the sky above. The fence appears to be made of chain-link and has barbed wire along the top. The overhead structure has a platform with what looks like a control booth or observation deck. The scene has a somber, ominous feel to it, suggesting a potentially restricted or sensitive military or governmental facility.

The black and white image shows an airport gate or entrance area surrounded by a chain-link fence. At the top of the fence, there appears to be barbed wire or razor wire. In the center of the fenced area is a small structure, likely a guard tower or security checkpoint, with stairs leading up to an enclosed platform. An airplane or large aircraft can be seen flying over the fenced area in the background. The overall scene has an abandoned or restricted feel, given the stark fencing and bare ground within the perimeter.

This is a black and white photograph taken in New York in 1972. The image shows a B-52 bomber aircraft flying over what appears to be a military or airport facility. In the foreground, there's a chain-link security fence, and behind it stands what looks like an aircraft guidance or monitoring station mounted on poles. The station appears to be striped or marked with contrasting colors. The composition creates an interesting juxtaposition between the fence in the foreground, the control structure in the middle ground, and the aircraft silhouetted against a cloudy sky in the background. The photo has a stark, documentary quality typical of 1970s photography, and there appears to be handwritten text at the bottom of the image.

The photograph is a black-and-white image showing a chain-link fence with an aircraft flying overhead. The view is from behind the fence, looking out over a large grassy area with what appears to be an airfield in the distance.

In the foreground, the chain-link fence is prominent, stretching across the frame. Behind the fence, there is a control tower-like structure made of metal, supported by striped posts, painted with alternating light and dark bands.

Above the structure and behind the fence, an aircraft is visible in flight. It is silhouetted against the sky, suggesting it is a military plane, possibly a bomber.

The background consists of a broad, flat landscape. There is a hint of trees along the horizon in the distance. The sky above is overcast or slightly cloudy, with a muted tone that contributes to the overall somber mood of the photograph.

The composition creates a sense of distance and confinement, with the fence acting as a barrier between the viewer and the activity beyond.

In the lower left, there is a handwritten inscription: "B-52 Griffiss Air Force Base - Strategic Air Command 6 Square miles New York 1992". In the lower right corner, there is another handwritten inscription that reads, "© Barbara Knefel 1992."
