when I look at it it shows a great possibility of colour correction, or tampered colours if you will.
though it is not a photoshop work I beleive, but inferno or smoke etc. (sgi). I mean its colours are too artistic, when we try to make a composite for
cinema&tv which includes 3d, generally the outcome looks very similar in terms of colour, that bluishness yet you dont lose the green and red. Those
volume light effects are pretty easy on inferno and the lens flare type of streak you see on the bottom light is also pretty easy. considering this is
a night photo it is really really hard to get this output.
you will not get any illumination on the face of the ship with the smooth gradients in the light sources together. if the film can pick the
illumination on the ship then the light areas should be burnt out and giving very hard edges. ( think of a helicopter directing a spot to you and you
take a picture, will you be able to see the helicopters bottom plating or just the blinding light?)
also while some lights create a cone of light, the center light does not, but it should.
also there is this fog, generally in composite scenes fog or volume light is frequently used to exagerate the effect of light. you see when we turn on
the lights in our house we dont get a volume light effect (unless we are hard smokers ofcourse). I mean this effect is widely used in compositing to
create a visually more dramatic effect.
I believe this is part of a sequence, a video, because there are some horizontal compression marks on the picture, which suggests this was a video in
its past.
in my personal opinion this image is too aesthetic to be true.
there is also a glow on the top-middle part of the image, as if the image was recaptured through a tv screen or a monitor, if not there was another
light above the craft located outside of the picture.
but who knows it could possibly be real, but then again I have other problems, if this is a secret government craft what is the point of small green,
yellow, and orange lights on the bottom. I mean it is not a christmas tree right?
I can't tell for sure.
