Description
HDR Image.Self portrait on the cockpit of an AMX fighter flying over the Amazon rain forest.
No, I'm not a pilot, I'm an avionics technician (I make music and take pictures for fun and fix aircrafts for a living) and I was there to check the radio systems of the aircraft.

I love the effect from the reflection of the flight helmet's mask. Overall, an amazing shot! What aircraft is this exactly? Also, thank you for your service; I'll make sure to return the favor once I graduate from college (I'm in AFROTC).

I really enjoy the composition in this dude, but I'm wondering how the heck you edited it because you couldn't have got multiple shots at different exposures while flying...... do tell!?

actually I took 3 auto bracketed shots: 1/80, 1/320 and 1/1250 at f/10.
there are some minor shifts on the clouds from one frame to another, but apart from that they're fine for hdr.
I processed it on photomatix 3 and did some color enhancement on adobe lightroom.

That's a brilliant shot. I like the reflective surfaces.

reflective surfaces are really eye candy on HDR images!

Estilosa atΓ© dizer chega, pelamor
Mas tu fez o HDR a partir de um RAW sΓ³ ou foi na manha de tirar vΓ‘rias foros parado com bracketing?
π: 0 β©: 1
foram tres fotos no auto bracketing com a camera na mão mesmo. variando dois pontos de exposição.
mas mesmo as imagens em hdr no solo eu fiz assim. eu perdi o meu tripΓ©!

OMG! I never knew! My Robbie is an aeroplanes technician too! Or he went to school for it, he has the education - but he's a car mechanic right now, hehe
This is an awesome picture! You don't see this kind of photos a lot here, hehe
