What an AMAZING photograph. Did Sam Chui get a job with Boeing or somthing?

I don't know is it's Sam but Jeremy was telling me that Boeing recently had an ad out for a LEAD photographer or something like that

Phil - yep, the photos are real, and they're spectacular!!

About time. Most of their press release photos would not be accepted on jpnet or anet.

Thanks!

Unfortunately though the requirements for the job were pretty obscene and I don't even come close to what they were looking for in a candidate. Let's just say what they wanted extended well beyond taking photographs. I think only Sam Chui-type folks even have the ability to consider it. Plus, as cool as the job would be, I couldn't post here anymore!

Is this real life?

I believe it is, but I also believe they shopped it to add some extra kick to the plane itself...the colors just don't match up quite right in terms of brightness. Plus it has to be from one of the test flights in December, because we haven't had weather late in January before the post was made (Tues the 5th).
