Just some saturation adjustments! I hope you like it!

I like it Greg......in my opinion it is a bit over saturated though Undecided

The clouds are washed out a little.....but, I am no aficionado on the subject of editing, just my opinion

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Your right Chuck, I should have isolated the sky somehow. These other folks here are sure talented though. Happy flying, Greg Cool

Have to agree with Chuck, on the sky at least. But the aircraft looks great.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thanks for your honesty too, it helps as I'm not that familiar with editing. I do like the angle of this shot, but the angle and time of day may have killed it as the original seems to be washed out too. Embarrassed

Happy flying

Hi Greg,
I'm assuming you're using ENB Bloom.....I've noticed on my sim that using bloom during broad daylight can really wash out the sky and clouds.
Try disabling your bloom when it is bright out.
Or, here is a thread I saw recently about adjusting your own bloom settings.
http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1296987302
I'm using the settings found there, bloom is toned down quite a bit. (remember to make a copy of your original settings)

I appreciate that Chuck. I saw that thread but I must have been rushing out the door. I copied the ini and will give it a go. Thanks a million, Greg
