ok so my Fire academy class had a good opportunity to take a class picture when the blue angels were flying but we didn't have a camera. So we used an iPhone and could not get the angels in the shot.

Is there any way to photoshop something in like that? Also, some how write SFFD with 120th recruit class in there. I know I'm asking a lot but I did one with just the iPhone and its square and not that good. Thanks for trying I wanna try and print something on canvas like 16x20 or something like that.

I was just checking to see if you liked the image before I added text.

FWIW, I thought that a bit more contrast and color might be appropriate, especially if you intend to print it on canvas (which absorbs ink like a blotter, LOL). Also, this composition lends itself to a more rectangular landscape format.

Anyway, here's my slight tweak on Sam's already excellent version. Double-click on the in-forum preview to see the full rez version.

PS - BTW, I thought I better point out that if you are going to print this in a large size, the reversed writing on the wings of the jets will probably eventually get noticed by someone, LOL.

i didn't even notice the writing on the wings. that might be a problem. might have to keep it a little smaller then. i have been messing around with the lettering with layers and here is what i have so far. i love that last pic but worried not enough room to write on it.

one more quick thing if anyone can. it can be made a little larger so i have room to print like a 16x20 or 11 x 14. if i try and gallery wrap this one i lose some of the writing and one of the recruits on the left side.

thanks

Here's is the slightly cropped (right) version with the painted text

If IamSam can put back the planes, I have to run now...

Can I see what it looks like planes turned around? Might not be as good but lettering would be correct right. Is that why the lettering is backwards. Thanks

Yes, the original image I posted with the Angels traveling right to left, was turned around from it's original photo.

Here, they are turned again with Eggy's wall text.
The lighting is correct in this configuration but the lettering is backwards.
