Now that we're on the subject. What do you guys think about this shot? I think it's pretty damn weird the 747 got that close. Both TCAS units would be blaring. And if it came from behind it would have been dangerously close to the A319's wake turbulence.

Just my opinion.

Its not uncommon at all when landing and departing on parrallel runways. The arrival goes around while a departure is rolling. They will just be issued turns to the left and right. Visual seperation is used until they have appropriate IFR sep.

Ladies....


Please

You're both beautiful

Mario I have put off asking you this but every time I go to read one of your posts that flying cow makes me laugh. Change it!

I to wasn't the one who rejected the photo so I'm losing your point

Well I just figured someone as yourself who has expressed disdain for locals behavior in uploading less than geniune pics would have answered him when he received a manipulation rejection and then asked for help. If you are in constant AIM communication I was just wondering why he posted it in the forum and he obviously needed clarification. Whether you screened the pic or not.

Btw equalizing a photo in PS does not give you the same results as the screening tools we have and that A.net has so you will never see what we see.

Actually if someone does a good job there is no way to catch it with any software. This persons mistake was uploading the mirror images. If he just uploaded the one image he cloned everything out of it would have never been caught.

OKAY, now I'm confused....I have seen threads from the moderators of both sites that say they do not have the TIME to look for dustspots other than by eye. That running a photo in another program would be too time consuming, and the ques would back up for weeks. Tommy, are you saying that is not true then?

Great question. Bad dust spots are pretty easily seen without equalizing the shot if you are looking at the picture on a good monitor and the lighting in the room is right. Specks too are easily seen.

econdly, if this is the case, why not have the tecnology available to those who upload so that we can see what the screeners are seeing? This should cut down on "dust spots" "dirty" and "digital mnipulation" submissions by approximately 50%...wouldn't you think?

Because PS is all you need. If it weren't it wouldn't be the most widely used program for photography both professional and amatuer. I am not sure what top secret software Tommy is speaking of but I would wager if it is available to them it's available to the public. In addition dust spots are easily seen using the tools in PS and finding any cloning or tampering of a photo is easily done in PS. Besides as I said if someone well versed in PS does a good clone job you ain't seeing it and will have to catch him another way as JP did when they noticed the other version of the pictures uploaded elsewhere.

As horribly wrong as that is, besides the superimposed regis (which look horribly FAKE to me), that guy is very skilled at Photoshop in my opinion. Taking titles off like that and maintaining such texture, etc is not an easy task.

It's a terrible shame that he's wasting his talent on being deceitful.

Well said Mel, the job he did on the Germanwings shot was unreal. I guess when you get to that level you need a new challenge and maybe he felt like uploading fakes was the way to go. Who knows.

Just my opinion.

What do I think? Looks like Ben was in the right place and the right time and nailed a winner. I doubt Ben Wang would need to do anything less than genuine work.

He's not banned for life, just 47 years, according to the A.net thread title. :)

Um, good math you're doing there, Matt.

He's actually banned for 43 years (almost 42).

[Matt Molnar]

Whatever. I'm banning moose for a misleading thread title, and you for correcting my math! :D

You can't ban me. I'm admin by injection, remember?

Ok ok....back on topic.
