wait a minute ive seen that background before Tongue

nice but i don't think its high enough to produce contrails or maybe it is.

you might want to reduce the opacity down a tad they seam a bit think

but other that that well done

Lookin good! But way too thick on the contrails. Looks like smoke from 4 of the space shuttles solid rocket boosters. Definitely reduce the opacity on them. Other than that, looks great! I was working on a similar shot myself!

very nice! i agree about the contrails needing to be lightened up a little bit, but its a great effect. very well done.  Cheesy

Layne,
