Last post by Anna M. Wood - September 01, 2024, 05:08:06 PMQuote from: tajmahal250 on August 25, 2024, 08:02:07 AMJust watched the latest COAP editing workshop. Learned lots of good things, once again. (Creating your own light source with a radial gradient = mind blown!).
Decided to use what I learned and combined that with a motion blur edit in Photoshop (Shot at 1/400 that day, so no motion blur, oops...). Did some dodging and burning on the bottom part of the fuselage to bring out the white underside of the plane, and increase the saturation on the top. Linear gradient on top and bottom to tone down the sun.
Well done Taj...

Last post by Matt Ottosen - July 09, 2024, 05:46:47 PMA few embark and sailing out of San Diego photos. Over the past few years, I have embraced my cellphone as a true backup imaging device.

CVN 70 Lookin' Good as we get Ready to Embark
The Red Padeye
Operation Neptune Spear was "a kill-or-capture" mission for Osama bin Laden, the mastermind behind the 9/11 attacks. After the mission, the body of Osama bin Laden was flown to the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson in a V-22 Osprey escorted by two US Navy F/A-18s. The padeye, that was closest to where the Osprey landed on the flight deck, was later painted red as a reminder of the USS Carl Vinson's role that night in what was a historic mission.
