Spaceflight: the blackest space

Hot! In Color Theory

Just your average Delta flight! You should try this little trick out, though!

Plenty of cloud coverage helped accentuate the rounded effect by casting pockets of shadows all throughout. All I did was tilt the camera so as to give it a feeling of curvature (tilt your head left and look at the clouds - looks like a normal airplane sight!) I increased contrast a tad to get the top deep black and voila!
