Well I looked at the pic on a different monitor and it appeared to be much lighter then on mine, which thereby took the affect away.

In any event for those who display a darker image if you look at the nose of the slot and the tail of the lead and look at it for a second it appears the formation is going away from you., If you look at the aircraft to the left(IE right wing) it appears that the formation is going from right to left.
Dorky yes, But oh well!!
