Nice two-ship formation of Raptors. I did a crop and added a color filter. It also needed some contrast adjustment and slight sharpening to make it pop.

The clouds in the shot add a nice contrast and give the shot more power.

You have to love a shot that has both condensation and afterburners. This picture exudes raw power.

I cropped it and adjusted the contrast. Shot needed a minor saturation adjustment. Sharpened the image as well. The focus of the shot is just slightly off, but overall it's an amazing photo.

F/A-22 and F-15E 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper.

Classic formation shot with an Alaskan mountain background. The F/A-22 is designed to replace the F-15 and you can see the design improvements. If I remember correctly, the F/A-22 is replacing the F-15E in Alaska.

This shot required a lot of post-processing. The original shot was washed out so I had to adjust the RGB levels. I also did a bump in contrast with a touch of saturation to make the color pop. The end result is much better than the original.
