First some night vision goggles:

Focusing in on the target:

The editing wasn't supposed to make them look pretty or realistic, but do you think i accomplished the effect i was looking for in each?

...night vision...
...Focusing...

I think that was what he was talkin about.
And those are some damn wicked shots dude.
I totally love them both.
But the 2nd is just... wow... really like the effect of almost blocking out everything else for a moment and focusing on your enemy.
Way cool, dude, way cool... Simple and quite, quite ineresting.

#2 is really nice, however I dont like the first one. It seems a little too grainy.

The first was supposed to be grainy. It was supposed to look like what a person wearing nightvision goggles would see. Its not exactly pretty, but i thought it made a cool effect. A soldier that was dropped off by the helicopter for a night mission glances up at it as it takes off.
And yeah, the effects i was talking about were night vision and focusing.

I guess I'm strange but I really like the first one, and think it looks great. Not too keen on the second, too much is blurry though I can see what you were trying to do. I think the target has already evaded you given the angles of the planes, but I might be wrong.

As has already been said...I LOVE the second! Shocked

That's awesome! The effect is really cool and adds alot to the shot! Excellent work.

Not with Immelman's amazing piloting skills!

thanks for the comments everyone, much appreciated.
Krigl, i found that if i decreased the blur any more then your focus wouldnt go right to the sabre, which is what i was hoping would happen, although you might be right.

the first one is good, maybe for NVG's a little to grainy.

the second one is good, what kind of blur did you use for it??
if you where to spend a little more time on number 2 it would look awesome if you added some motion blur to the scenery. it would realy finish the pic off.
