[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I took this picture with zoom, on the 18th March, in Sankt Augustin, near Bonn.
It was a lovely sunset. The clouds were changing form rapidly.
I have two more shots in my WS, one previous to this one and one taken afterwards.

I worked the picture in Photosphop, playing with shadow and highlight.

This is my contribution to Helens theme, "Flight".

What magical clouds here Liliana!
Great light and color. Awesome classic plane!
Great work and theme entry.
- Vincent

Bonjour Liliana,
the treatment that you made with Photoshop is superb. The colors are fantastic. It is necessary to be fast to take a so small plane in flight, I understands easily that you aren't had much time but the result is there, cheer. Good contribution to theme

Hello Liliana

WOW what an amazing shot here, that sky is just incredible. The image detail is excellent as are the tones and colours. The framing works perfectly with this shot.

TFS and for joining in the theme

kind regards Helen

Hi Liliana
This is so romantic, a plane flying off into the sunset. The clouds with their soft colours add nice texture create a nice mood to your image. Hopefully the pilot didn't have a bumpy ride. :)
TFS Janice

Wow! What a capture. And such a great title. The tones and details are excellent. I really love how the clouds look. Awesome rule of thirds and idea.
TFS

It's like a picture from old movies! The color of the sky is amazing and the plane added more to the shot!
Great job!

Hi Lili,
Striking and beautiful color contrast of the warm golden yellow and cool blue on the clouds. And it is a perfect match to give a nice drama to the flying antique plane.
Very nice contribution for the theme, Lili.

On this shot, the sky is quite spectacular! The colours are a painter's dream!
I like the other shots too!

Hi Lili,
Great collection of shots, I do prefer this one though with the aircraft silhoetted against such a wonderfully coloured sky.
Well done

Ciao Lili, bello il vecchio aereoplano che vola in un cielo da sogno, colori fantasmagotrici, bravissima, ciao Silvio

Hi Liliana.

What a superb set of clouds and light show. The plane gives it a real sense of drama and almost looks like a 1930's poster. Absolutely beautiful. Paul.

Bonjour Liliana
Quelle ciel splendide avec de très belles textures et des couleurs superbes!
Le petit avion est très bien vu dans la composition et un donne un bel équilibre à l'ensemble, bravo à toi!

Hello Lili

Cred ca in afara de Photoshop ai folosit si, prea mult, NeatImage.
Parca ti-am mai zis si alta data sa incerci sa te joci cu reglajele pe care le are pentru ca de multe ori le curata prea tare si pierd orice urma de textura, devin prea soft.
Ma rog, cel putin pentru mine.

Hi Lili,
Lovely colours, lovely sky. The little Piper Cub is just a perfect addition. You even have his propellor blurred, perfect.

Buna Lili

Ne place imaginea, avand in vedere ca e facuta cu noul tau aparat- demn de lauda!
Ne-am intors si sper sa te bucuri.
O zi buna si PAste Fericit
Alex si mami

Buna LILI ,
" Avion cu motor....." ce ziceam cand eram copii. Acum, vad la tine pe acest cer inflacarat acest avion. Buna imagine si bine prelucrata ( parerea mea). Dar ...parca vazusem un EOS pe la tine?
O saptamana minunata, Iulian

Hi Liliana,
outstanding shot! amazing colors, very good sharpness, great PP work, frame fits here very well! wonderful job,

Hi Lili,

A lovely old propellor plane, but the light in the sky is what makes it more then attractive.

Wonderful work here!

Salut Lili! Poza asta e f f tare imi aduce aminte de Thessaloniki unde avioanele aterizeaza parca in mijlocul orasului, pentru ca se vede foarte clar forma avionului. imi place f mult si titlul.

Paste Fericit!

ciao Liliana,

I hope this photo is not a real fire. In California we've been having massive fires, 800 at one point, which are still burning, so I hope your photo is just a sunset!

Hi Liliana
Your photo remind me one film, "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow", that's why I like it. Nice softness and composition.

Bonjour Liliane.
L’hélice de cette avion n’étant pas figée prouve que tu as utilisé la bonne vitesse d’obturateur et montre que cette n’est pas a l’arrêt.
Superbes couleurs qui donnent du dynamisme à cette belle photo.
Bonne journée.
