I had understood that that photo was a fake, tricked up using Photoshop. Very interesting to find it is real. Great dio Kostas.

Truly gorgeous work. I'm always thrilled to see dramatic action with ship scenes! --Karl

I had done some checking myself when I saw it the first time. Photo credits: Edgar Dale Surber, via Fred Willshaw this from Navsource. It is odd to think a ship that big can turn like that. I saw USS America do a high speed turn off the Virginia Capes. We were on her tail playing air dog when she did it. I will agree to one thing, Photoshop in the proper hands is a problem.

Hi everyone and thank you for your kind remarks. As for the particular photo i can't tell you of it's real or not or any other details, but while i was half the way into this dio i discovered another picture from LIFE magazine with the actual Enterprise on a seemingly exact same maneuver but taken from a different angle .I cant upload the picture as i just moved and there is still no internet connection at home but soon as i get one will post it.One thing is for sure that back in the 60's there wouldn't be much of a chance of retouching digitally any of these pictures.

To me it the picture is real or not doesn't matter. Your depiction of it is really good!

very small photo.

Absolutely wonderful stuff again Kostas. Your work is an inspiration!
