Another leg down and another set of images.
I opted for a KLM 747-400 (PMDG) and left a little earlier than usual to enjoy a nice sunrise.
Positive rate of climb, and I am about to raise the gear
(Added a little motion blur to gound)
Here I am climbing out with the airport disappearing in the distance.
(Other than a crop this is a straight screenshot)
Still climbing here, and about ot raise the last of the flaps.
(another straight screenshot here)
Another shot in the climb just as I am about to raise the last of the flaps.
(straight screen shot again)
This is a shot taken about midway through the decsent
(Straight screenshot)
Still in the decsent, this is at approx 11oooft.
(I added a little motion blur and a diffused glow to this shot)
Heading towards the airfield now after vectors for a visual to runway21.
(Straight screenshot)
And here I am lined up on final
(added motion blur to the landscape to try and add some movement to the shot)
I am enjoying the African legs so far as the weather has been interesting. I was expecting nothing but blue skies but thanks to ActiveSky I have discovered this isn't the case.
I hope you are enjoying my shots, if you like any of them so far (from any of my previous posts) I will be happy to E-mail them to you, they are large enough to make nice desktop wallpapers etc.
Cheers
Darren
