Thanks guys. The stuff I shot this last couple days while out flying was all hand-held. Here's a couple more...

27,000 lbs. Thrust From This Flower...

Another similar shot here.

#1...

I tried to get rid of that weird "corona" around the engine nacelle, but couldn't get it to work itself out of the image.

Chicago Midway...

All-in-all, I'm really happy with the way this one turned out. The only thing I'd change (if I could) would be the yellowish-orange tones that the fluorescent lights down the concourse give off.

Try adjusting the smoothing to lose the corona.

I tried everything...I thought. I'll go back and take a look.

They are looking good! As for changing the hue:

I brought it into Photoshop, converted to LAB color space (I find it is a pretty easy space to change hues like this), did a curves adjustment layer, and mashed them around until I got what I wanted (I Ctrl clicked to get the points on the curves where I wanted them), then masked off everything but the hall. It is probably easier if I just send you the PSD so you can see what is going on.

Precisely what I was after...

Thanks.

I'll take the whole right side of that image, I'll admit I'm an L-coholic. Oh that red ring feels so good!

 

[FBJ]

Red ring, schmed ring.

It's all about the BIG GOLD 'N'!

BLING BLING!!!

Speaking of that, watching the Laker game tonight I saw some big glass along the court. What caught my eye was the fact that a lot more of it was black than what you usually see. Maybe the D3 is having an impact?

And congrats to RR for the photo of the week honors! Man you are getting a lot of quality images out there. Good job!

 

[FBJ]

Maybe the D3 is having an impact?

No question.

D3FINITELY!

Oooo, I actually like that one better than the 27,000lbs thrust flower. The color gradient that is happening is very interesting. Is that some split toning that is going on, or is that just from the sunrise? Very cool.
