Hi Brian - great comp and well done for the in flight cap.
But it's a bit too contrasty and perhaps even a bit over saturated - are you shooting RAW or jpeg, and what are your in-cam settings??

Regards

Andy

Credit due to get one of these in flight. They're very hard to track IMO. Procesing could be improved I think with a bit of tonal adjustment and the BG looks slightly noisy :confused:

Nice to get it calling in flight. A bit of work could pay dividends on this image :toast:
