Comments appriciated.


Its a bit 'JPEGed' but Ok. Tell if you thinks its better or worse.  ;)

Amazing, that is truely an amazing edit!

Gorgeous...

The horizon to the left of the plane looks slightly odd being perfectly flat. It might actually be flat, but it looks strange to me.

Only constructive criticism, but that is one fantastic edit! The scenery is amazing!

Wow, keep it up!

PS. Take the lens flare off as well

too bad this missed the AUG contest.  8)

Thanks for the comments. Any ideas on how to make it better?

Any ideas on how to make it better?

1) As I said, make the horizon less flat. It may be meant to be flat, but to me it looks wrong.

2) Take out the lens flare. Photographers try their hardest to not get lens flare, and then people go and put them in on edits! Nothing personal, I just don't like them at all.

I don't know about the lens flare... It looks cool, but it's missplaced. The real sun is behind the nose of the jet, just follow the lightrays.
And the horizon, well... it looks acceptable to me, but I think it should be blurred a bit. The contrast is too strong.
And now I'm really looking, I think the aircraft is a bit too light and off colour. Try darkening it a bit or use the burn tool (I you have it) and put a (slight!) colour layer over the whole picture. That might blend it a bit more...
Just talking about minor details here, it already looks awesome.

Tell me if you think 2nd try is better.

Yup! A lot better now! Didn't realise the sun was already there. I thought you put a sun in with your lens flare in the first one. It's weird that the lightbeams do not point towards the sun, but to a location slightly lower and to the right, but I know you can't help it.
Good work!  8)
