Flight Over Water


Caught in mid-flight at the Lough, Cork

Post processing:

  • Converted from RAW with gimp-ufraw
  • Rotated and cropped a much larger image, this is why the extra mega pixels are handy!
  • Cleanup with Dcam noise, sharpen with unsharp mask.
  • Colour adjustment with colour mixer.
  • Resize and unsharp mask again.
  • Duplicate Layer. Bottom layer is blurred with a radius of 15 pixels, and brightened significantly.
  • Set layer mode of top layer to “Overlay” to give the soft light/starry light effect.
