Varig take 2

Found a certain 'style' i like and it leans a little towards 'realism' (i think anyway!!)  

Hopefully tried to create a photo look about these, if you think not, or have any suggestions, im all ears!!!

Looks great!

I think they look fairly realistic, atleast with a slightly older camera

Really well done.  Living here in Brazil, I am perhaps a bit prejudiced, but these could probably be shots from the advertising.

lol cheers!

I resoned on using older types rather than more recent aicraft so that the slightly 'old photo' look would work without being too obvious as it would be with a brand spanker triple 7 or such like!

Are they a big airline in brazil? Come across their livery a lot, but dont really know a lot about them.....

I like the second one best! But I think that the very intense blue sky (#1, #3) doesn't fit this old (almost sepia-)look, but anyway nice edits!!!

Yes, Varig is a big airline in Brazil and has flights all around the world, of course.  TAM is bigger, though.  

One thing I have noticed flying Brazilian airline companies around the world is that, generally, the seats are not as close and the food is often better.  It's still airline food amd not to be mistaken for a genuine meal, though.

Yeah i take your point, its the original shot that determines that i think. I need to be more selective on the original shot so that the edit 'works' by faffing with the weather a bit

However when i took the orignal shots they were mainly for the payware section and the edits were an after thought!!!

Re the airline - interesting, i read up on them, seems they have gone bust and sort of got swallowed up by another airline or somthing! Once the biggest in brazil before that....
