Updraft

very interesting shot. I love the angle it was taken from :)

sensational shot! the sepia really adds a journalistic quality, love the clouds…. brilliant

This is an incredible shot. Super well done. It is one of those pictures that you just keep staring at, it is so amazing.

I love it!!!!

OH MAN. This is fantastic. What amazing tones

Very original, great perspective and treatment.

Thanks guys. It’s a composite of three images. The background was taken from an office of the 23rd floor in Brisbane and the plane is seen hanging in the Brisbane Museum.

WICKED!! such good work and talent shown n this image!!! Just out of interest did it take long? :)

WOW – this is amazing!!

Bloody amazing…

Now that’a what I call a POV. Phwew! What Toni said

WOW!!! :-O …. I have nothing …...

very nice!! awesome perspective

Awesome work… looks so real.

My first response was holy faaark. Then I read you comment about how it was created. Do you like spoiling movie endings as well. lol – only kidding.

My second response was still holy faaark – Beautiful work.

What an incredible image!!

@ Amanda: The most difficult part of the image Amanda was isolating the plane and that took me about one hour as I used the “Eraser” tool within Photoshop. All up I guess a couple of hours. I also mucked around a fair bit with the image as I wanted to do a couple of things;
A) Give it an older type feel, hence the sepia and the grain
B) I also didn’t want the plane in focus as it would not have seemed real. I would have given the plane motion blur but Photoshop kept crashing when I went to use that filter.

Hope that answers your questions.
