Concordepilot's Lightspeed

This month's article is focusing on camera angles and the less obvious elements used to create action and speed.

Welcome to this month's article of Concordepilot's Lightspeed! As you already know what I am showing this month from the title, let's get on with it!

This month (yet again) I have been nosing around the Graphic galleries and found what I feel are an interesting set of shots.

First of all, this shot I fell in love with because of the incredible visual display of speed.

This shot was the deserving winner of the Speed Screenshot Contest. The pic was taken down a cavern (best place for fast shots as they are cramped and usually in close proximity to your aircraft) and being in the cockpit perspective really pushes that "speed effect".... as you see in most of the g-effects and "streamline" effect over the cockpit. The target visor on the centre of the cockpit may suggest that the pilot is hunting down someone in a war, or he's just messing around with the electronincs..lol.

The following shot dosn't offer the greatest taste of speed, but it does have some qualities that are definately going in that direction.

First of all, this shot shows a fighter jet with the re-heats on, but

Rain always helps.

Together with a slight perspective offset, it makes for a unusual shot.

Good shott there Tchkinjiu I like the effects round to cockpit but when I was looking at the cockpit zooming you wern't zoomed in enought and the mountains gave it that slow "boring" effect. But overall love the shot.
