I consider myself pretty much a novice maybe somewhat intermediate at Photoshop still, not all shots turn out like you want them to. This one did for me. I tweaked this shot for a couple hours till I was happy with it. No one program is the answer, I usually run a shot though multiple programs trying different things till I start getting the result I am looking for. This shot started as preset in HDR Efex Pro and then the rest of the editing was done in LR4 & CS5.

Very nicely done. I need to step up my game in order to do that sort of stuff some day.

Beautiful shot Eric.  I like the curved and tilted horizon and the way the clouds mirror the pattern in the sand.  I have a tough time bringing myself to tilt horizons but when done appropriately it can work.

Eric, Would also love to see that in a B&W.

Took a ride in a Beech Baron today. Most of you will probably recognize this location.

Very cool!  That has got to be one of the most amazing things on the planet.

That had to have been a pretty spectacular event. I'm glad I wasn't around when it happened.  :o

Did your pilot lower a wing for you to get that view?

He did, but I still had to crop out the wing tip. A Baron is not exactly the best aircraft for air-to-ground photography. It's very difficult to see down at all, with both the wing and the engine out there. A real nice plane though. This one is a 1975 B55 with upgraded engines and a real nice panel with a bunch of Garmin stuff retro-fitted.

Technically, the last two shots are still things that "Fly"
