First try at this...be gentle...

Air Force One over the Florida Keys, inbound to St. Marteen...

Air Force One FL380 in the vicinity of Springfield, IL

Another view of Air Force One, this time over the Atlantic at sunset closing in on Princess Julianna

AN224 Ready for takeoff at O'Hare

Blue Angel 7 (ok, the tail says 1, but it really should be 7 since that is the two seater that takes correspondents up and about) gives a ride to a local sports talk radio host over Chicago.

Thoughts?  I have a ton more...I can't stop hitting the "v" key...lol.  Depending on the feedback, I might work on more later and post next week...

Thanks for looking!

Try to get a bit of detail into your shots. The world as you show it in these is completely flat. Try to get a bit of terrain in them. Also zooming in a bit more on the planes would give a better effect I think! These aren't bad for first time shots though! Your first shot and the Eva Air one are quite lovely actually!

Looking forward to seeing more of your shots!

Imagine AF1 coming in over Maho Beach!  I guess the president gets sick of Camp David.

yeah, it was a fun flight...Ohare to Princess Juliana....from there to LAX, and now he is on his way to Honolulu.  

:)

Pics look a lot brighter on this cpu than my other one...the AN224 looks really dark on the other one making the runway lights come out more.

I have some others that I will put up the next time i get a chance.

Looks good, but number two is too flat, also you should either turn on AA or be careful when you compress.
Keep it up! ;)

i liked number two and the angle just for the curving contrails.  that was the only way i could get them...like the suggestion though...
