Just so happens to be that two great wonders of the man made world are right next to each other. There is Alcatraz Island and the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, CA. Default FSX terrain and UKMIL C-17 downloaded right from Simviation.

People are always asking me how is it that firefighters run into a burning building when everyone else is running out. Courage is the answer.

Beutiful photograph! I never would have thought of being able to get two of the man made wonders of the world in one photo! Brilliant! Wink

And, again, goodbye to my chances of winning. Definite for this one. Sad

Do not worry. When I want a good picture I look for my favorite Plane slew to the correct position and then stop slew to put it into a bank and then snap Kiss

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

I actually fly to the places. but if you are in an F-15 doing 600 mph and you see there could be a good pic coming out, you slew it to the area adjust your altitude and then stop slew and then snap. But when I don't slew I usually pause to adjust the camera and then do final adjustments. Cool

.
Like for iris planes effects don't work for when paused. so adjust camera. Then unpause and snap Tongue

That's one of the benifits of doing shots that are nothing but default. Cool

It's actually easy cause the moment you unpause the effect works again. So I just put it into locked spot when moving fast and unpause and quickly press v Wink

But right when you unpause it the view will slingshot. I just pause it and waint for the Pause in the bottom corner to dissapear since it flashes.

I also do that

. But If you push "A" or right click go down to outside locked spot it will not slingshot Roll Eyes

Very nice. Good luck in the contest.

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