I've always thought it looks like a giant Coho Salmon. Especially so before it got painted.

OK, for those that are photoshop nerds, start painting it in fifferent schemes- hot dog, salmon, etc.
Personally, it would be fun to cammo it with a background of sky blue with all the different Boeing planes painted on it. Always wanted to do that with a C-5. Paint it to look like a whole squadron of fighters flying formation.

Ive got a photograph of a cammo C-5 and it looks weird because you just don't see them that often at all.

If only I had my laptop at work - I wanna CS that DreamLifter lol

Nice IL-76...

We were supposed to have one at Tucson two years ago but it flaked. :(

I'm the last one who should be giving you C&C but it's nice shot and I like the processing.

If I may, the only thing I do before running Filter Forge dull the image just a bit to soften it up. I might be completely wrong in doing so but it just feels right when I look at it afterwards.

Either way, I love that plugin :)

So I guess there's no such thing as an "Old, Good Photo?"

Not every shot from WWII was soft, underexposed, over contrasty and grainy! :lol:

(I get what folks are saying though. Consensus everywhere is running about the same .. Plane looks too good)
