Took this shot as I neared Cuba, after crossing around 90NM of water on my Caribbean Tour.

Then edited it... yeah.

Looks pretty much like my other edits

...LOL... ;D...!

The lovely Cessna 182 RG (Retractable Gear) always looks strange with its wheels up.....but it certainly makes the Aircraft very "slippery" in the air... A very speedy Aircraft!....:)...!

One of my favourite high-wing, single prop, fast Tourers... :)...!

An excellent, simple shot of a very desirable Aircraft..;)...!

F---G-BPLF... 8-)...!

I've always thought it looks stranger with the gear travelling :P

But yeah, at a good 7000 feet, you can probably squeeze out a good 160 knots ground speed, quite excellent! :)

Thanks! :)

It has the same strange wheel arrangement as the Cessna 337 with its Twin, in-line, Push-Pull Props.... :)...!

Always very amusing to watch the wheels retracting or lowering during flight... ;D...!

F....G-BPLF... ;D...!

Lol. Bloody look alike aircraft. I can just about tell the difference between 152 and 172... but no idea that was a 182!  ;D

Nice looking water, but what am I looking at that is edited? What did you do to it? Looks just like a nice sunny normal screen-shot to me.

:) Bob

ps. After looking a little closer maybe you adjusted the way the lighting plays on the aircraft and water. Looks good.

Didn't do a whole lot to it, I just used Luce and a spotlight effect, plus I evened out some rough edges, and added the exhaust :)
