Vicki Casper (right) talks with Kim Rex (both with SW Airlines) about World Vision and the availability of child sponsorship. Vicki sponsors 4 children from different parts of the world and has single-handedly recruited more than 400 doners who make a monthly gift to sponsor a needy child overseas by talking with people as she travels through airports around the country.

Photoshop:
• All 4 planes were added in post from different frames (earlier or later than this image obviously).
• People are really there watching the planes, but the little girl that is kneeling, she is the same girl that is standing, I just borrowed her from a different frame, then did a hue/saturation layer mask and changed the color of her sweater so it doesn't look like the same girl (maybe her twin :-).
• Gaussian blur added to background to make it appear like it was shot at a wider aperature.

	Coogan Photo says: I didn't notice that either... I have no idea how to Photoshop in the reflection on the floor. 3/31/08 Edit: OK, I went back into the psd file and added the reflection into the shot from the file with the reflection. Posted 4 months ago. ( permalink )
