 Thunderbirds at the McGuire AFB Airshow. Underexposed and not technically a good photograph. I used the invert filter and adjusted levels. Some Hue/Sat adjustments, burn a small area of the clouds and cropped then saved for web.

The lighting is very odd. Planes looks like they are made of paper.

These acrobatic teams really look good flying inverted.:) Well, if this really is an instance of the "invert" adjustment, it is one of the best I have seen and one I enjoy more than usual.

This looks way better as a negative, good call to invert it.
