It is with great frustration that I am going to be offline this weekend. Reason: Telecoms is down for the weekend. As for ATWC leg 19 I will be flying that over the weekend and will post as soon as my comms is back up and running. See you after the weekend, and have a great weekend all in what ever you may be doing or have planned (hopefully a lot of FS). Cheers Wayne

Oh great news the baton is in South Africa, or shall I say :sleep: , I am on a film shot doing some flying for a up an coming movie about South African Jet Aces during the war. I will need to borrow a plane and get my A%$ up to FAPI to meet the baton and pick it up for the next leg, need to pull some strings and I must get hold of CP to meet me there. Great post 'Capthill', and the baton surely did get first class treatment on this leg, well the president must recognise the importance of the baton, in the way it is bring Nations together around the globe. Loved this leg, well done CaptHil

Here is my controbution for this months comp. I do not normally fly in snowy winter conditions, being from Africa and all, but thought I would give it a go, flying out of CYXC (Cranbrook, Canada), conditions where so bad I could not see far enough ahead and even started loosing sight of the ground at times, and being a GA flyer I get nervous when I an not see the ground. Not long after take off I decided this was for the geese, so I turned around and managed to find my way back to my departure AP and landed, safely thank goodness. So all 3 my entries from the same flight. Minor edits to enha

Thank You all for the kind comments. Judging by the reactions, I must be doing something right. Once again Thank You. :sleep:

Tried another, this time with a darker light setting, and to answer the suggestion of rosario for some reflections on the windscreen. Once again comments welcome please. Original shot The edit Thanks for looking.

Very nice post, well done. :mrhappy:

Thanks for the comments chaps, as our friend Reef always said, it motivates one to keep trying. :mrhappy: As for the reflections on the glass, well that is a trick I am still trying to master.

Very nice set of shots Marcus, I especially like the third shot, nice angle. :mrhappy:

Trying new things with lighting and the effect of the view through the windshield of the cockpit. Comments welcome. Original Shot Edited shot

Very nice Gareth, really enjoyed that something very different, well done. :clap: :mrhappy:

Steve, Great edit and thank you for making my homeland the theme choicefor this final edit, with the springbok and old SAF colours I am saddend by the news, and not for my sake but for the sake of this really wonderful FS community called Mutley's Hangar. While I realise that you will not be leaving us for good and that you will still post here from time to time, it is the richness of your posts and the value you bring to this site that will be missed not only by myself but by all that are members of Mutley's Hangar, I am sure. And not not only for the increadible edits you post but for the p

Just quick edit from me, been practicing, trying to apply the tips tought by reef. Comments welcome please.

Nice edit Steve, liking it very much, like the use of colours. :clap:

Ver nice set of shot there Andy, well done, love the scenery. :clap:

Briiliant post Rob, excellent shots, and thanks for getting the batton closer to me.

Well here is my finished version of the "Editalong". Had a bit of scare today and thought I may not be able to finish this, had a power failure at home today and when the power come back on my PC would not, did some investigation, concluded it might be the PSU, got new one and conclusion was right, so back up and running fully again. New machine on the card, this one +- 3 years old now, need new machine for FSX. Comments please. Thank you Steve , I learnt a heck of a lot during this editalong with you, looking forward to the next lesson, hopefully I will have Adobe Photoshop by then.

Very nice set of shots Andrew.

Great shots :mrhappy:

Thanks Mate, looking forward to it. Background lighting and definition is the thing I am stuggling with the most at the moment, and you hinted that that was the next order of business. So again thanks for your effort and time. Hey Boss, what's up? You falling behind in school.

Beautiful aircaraft; beautiful scenery; beautiful shots all round just a fantastic post Rosario, thank you for the detailed commentary you put inot this post, really enjoyed that (I learnt a thing or two). And the family, Beauuuuuuutiful, thanks for posting that shot of your family. I gald you feel the same way about this hangar as I do, really the greatest bunch of FS'ers that hang out at Mutleys, and the boss, his the greatest.

WOW a lot of shots, but very nice, and a nice range of AC, well done Kieran. Thanks for getting the batton to it's destination.

Steve, any chance we are going to come back to this tutorial and finish this edit and maybe move onto one of the others you hinted at doing.

Is there any limit to how high you can set the bar Steve, man this a mind blowing shot. I love the way the second glider is placed in the background.

Just when I think you have set the bar, you raise it even higher. Steve it is just amazing how realistic you are able to make your shots look. Your efforts are paying off. Well done mate, really awsome edit. :clap:

Davey, a very deserved winner mate, congratulations. I must, had I been the judge of this comp, your shot would have been my first choice to win. :clap:
