reef 3 Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 Hello chaps. I have been flying many internal US flights of late and these are 2 sets i posted over at JF. The first is a night/dawn set of a Delta 767-300ER flying LAX to FRA (but only to cruise). I struggle with night editing and i feel not such great edits so advice welcome on these..... Pushback...767-300ER of Delta in her 1999 colors. Rolling out to the active 7L if i remember right. Lining up, i love the GE low howl on these engines. Rotate.. Gear in transit... Same view from the deck.. Climbing through FL100...Landing lights off. FL270 and the sun breaks.... Cruise at FL330 with sunrise. ......The second flight was for Continental Connection in a Embraer 120 flying Boston Logan(KBOS) to Washington Reagan(KDCA) Again trying different editing techniques on this one so not for everybody. The taxi out to 22R passing the American Airlines Gates. Leaving Boston Logan Intl. En-Route. 8000' Cruise. NWA flight holds short as we make final adjustments to land in a heavy crosswind. Not centerline but i was happy with the landing. Heading for the gate as the NWA A32x gets away. Hope one or two you enjoyed. Comments good and bad welcome......thanks for looking. steve Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 Splendid, just splendid! The night shots are every bit as good as the day, I love the halo effect around the buildings the second one is may favourite. The Continental livery on the Emb 120 is so smart, nasty case of wind you had there Steve! Thanks for posting. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 As usual, if you showed these and said they we real photos, nine out of ten people would believe it. They're that good, especially the night shots. John Link to post Share on other sites
reef 3 Posted October 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 Thanks guys although i was not happy so i had another bash at one of the night pics. Basically looked at some real life airliners at night and tried to apply what i saw to the FS screenshot. See what you think but ignore the ground reflection, was just messing around in PS. The before pic, Origional edit... The after shot, additional editing... Let me know what you think, better or worse ? steve Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 The latter shot, showing the reflections on the A/C's hull is very realistic - excellent editing, Steve. Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
