  3. Not even.

    Extreme depth-of-field compression from mega-telephoto lens work.

    And the "translucent" wings are a byproduct of the USN putting about 10 clear coats over the Blue Angels Blue paint job, and reflecting the skyscrapers behind the camera's point-of-view.

    What's real is the C-130 doing a high-G (for a C-130) 85° turn, through Seattle airspace, well below the level of the obs deck on the Space Needle.

    Good stuff. Especially for any VIPs getting their Sick Bag qual.

    Great flying, and great camera work, all around.
