Flight to Puerto Vallarta*
by Byron Stuckless

Airplane to PV, Mexico

I knew someone was bound to do this... so I figured I'd be the first. I saw this out the window of my plane as I was flying to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. It was one of the very first photos taken with my Cannon. I purchased it a day before this trip. Enjoy

Well Victor, I guess I could flip her upside down... then the sun would be right, but the it would look more like she was swimming. I had no option with the feet... they were burried in the sand and I had to imagine where her feet were to reconstruct them. Both shots were taken in Puerto Vallarta on the same trip. Definitely not set up for this variation... but if I were to stage it... you are right... Somehting to keep an eye out for... thanks. -Byron

The feet totally ruin the picture for me. Also, the sun angle is wrong for the background. It shouldn't be too hard to keep this same idea and correct these two things for a better image. -- Victor

:) First, I thought she was running on a treadmill. Mostly her outfit said she's in a beach and I noticed the sand to confirm it. But nice photoshop effect and a great eye made her look like a super-women. Nice work! :) - Karthik.

Lol - She was flying to Puerto Vallarta... didn't you look at the picture? ;^P

Ok, yes, spiking her serve in beach volleyball in PV, I guess the sand where her feet are supposed to be gives it away. I had to create a Left foot for her. But don't we all dream.... -Byron
