Just been going through my photos from America the other year and came across this so gave it a quick edit and resize for your viewing pleasure (or lack there of :razz

All criticism welcome, good or bad. don't be afraid to say if you don't like it!

I think it's a super light for the subject ,shutter speed perfect.

 

[purpleclouds]

I think the horizon could do with a little straighten... but otherwise it's lovely

 

[markjayne]

Yeah the horizon is the first thing that catches my eye, apart from that its a nice shot, great choice of shutter speed

[Viper]

Thankyou so far

I noticed the horizon as soon as i posted it, but when I went back into photoshop, to straighten it, the following crop chops off the tail so I left it as it is.

Either that or I dont know how to straighten a photo properly

Very nice - lovely light - was it taken at Newark ??

 

[Chaz Photos]

Nice photo and as for ¼ of a sec f27 was it hand held?
The horizon is not that far out Its one of them photos where if you straighten it up it still looks wrong What is happen is the angle of the runway to the angle of shot making it look out.
The horizon is less the 1deg out so leave it as it is.
I had a judge telling me my photo would look better if it was upright and not twisted. I had to point out after; he was wrong as it was up right. What he seen as the horizon was the other bank of the river, as the shot was taken at a angle to the river there is no way this can be seen a level.

Levien. Thankyou. Yes it was at Newark

Chaz, cheers for the comments! It was hand held, yes.

 

[markjayne]

Not wanting to sound picky but the horizon is out by more than 1 degree, look at the verticals of the distant buildings, would improve the shot a lot if the horizon was level IMO

I've altered an example but won't post it unless your happy for me to do so.

[Buttkicker]

5 mins in photoshop or other such program to level it up is all that is required here
nice shot

 

[Viper]

Feel free to post up any alterations It's the only way i can learn. would be good if you said how you did it too

Cheers

Here's my effort...

[Dangermouse]

Nice very, VERY nice the prop blur is simply stunning

 

[Peter_Hartland]

The straighened version is better, nice light & really like th prop effect here

 

[Bertha37]

Crackin' prop blur

If that horizon was only 1 degree out, they must erect buildings whilst drunk out there!

Marks version much better horizon-wise

 

[Viper]

Cheers mark.

when I tried it I did the buildings, but I'm guessing you used the tail?

 

[AshD]

Nice shot, especially for handheld!

 

[wegotitugetit]

cracking prop blur and nice background

 

[Viper]

Cheers

If only i could go back there to take more!
