The Scaled Composites Model 348 WhiteKnightTwo (WK2) is a jet-powered carrier aircraft which will be used to launch the SpaceShipTwo spacecraft. It is being developed by Scaled Composites as the first stage of Tier 1b, a two-stage to suborbital-space manned launch system. WK2 is based on the successful mothership to SpaceShipOne, White Knight, which itself is based on Proteus.
Virgin Galactic has ordered two WK2s. Together WK2 and SS2 form the basis for Virgin Galactic's fleet of suborbital spaceplanes.
The first WK2 is named VMS Eve after Richard Branson's mother; it was officially unveiled on July 28, 2008, and flew for the first time on December 21, 2008. The second is expected to be named VMS Spirit of Steve Fossett after Branson's close friend Steve Fossett.
WhiteKnightTwo is roughly three times larger than White Knight, in order to perform a captive carry with the larger SpaceShipTwo spacecraft. The WK2 is similar in wingspan to a B-29 Superfortress. Despite that comparison, White Knight Two is a thoroughly modern aircraft - even the flight control cables are constructed of carbon fiber, using a new patented design.
WK2 will provide preview flights offering several seconds of weightlessness, before the actual suborbital event. It is intended to have a service ceiling of about 60,000 ft (18 km), offering a dark blue sky to passengers. This will allow tourists to practice before the real flight.
WhiteKnightTwo consists of a twin boom with two jet engines per hull.[8] One hull is an exact replica of that of SpaceShipTwo (to allow tourist training), and the other will carry cut-rate day-trippers into the stratosphere.
The design is quite different from the White Knight, both in size, use of tail, engine configuration and placement of cockpit(s). The White Knight uses two T-tails, but the WhiteKnightTwo uses two cruciform tails. Engine configuration is also very different, with engines hung underneath the wings on the WhiteKnightTwo as opposed to engines on either side of the sole cockpit on the White Knight.

Whew, that was exhausting.
Inspired by the many great composite photographers/artists on Flickr, I've been making the effort to develop my own skills in the arena of composite image creation, and I can tell you that my respect for those who do this well has only grown as I've discovered the many challenges that come along with executing and editing this kind of work.
Thanks for all the inspriation fellow Flickr-mates!

The children’s chair Parupu was launched at the Milan Furniture Fair in April 2009 by Södra Cell, Claesson Koivisto Rune and Innventia. Behind it lie many years of research. The material for this chair – a new composite material based on cellulose and biodegradable PLA – has been developed within the Cluster Research programme at Innventia.
I've just finished flicking through Chris Brasher's Blog. brasherphotos.blogspot.com/
For some of his shots they're made of many different images and the best is taken to form the perfect composite.
I thought I'd have a go at throwing the best of 10 or 15 pics together just as a kind of self test. Here's the result.
Yes, the car is filthy, the location (front yard) is bland. Composition of picture is boring. I just wanted to see where my skill level is/isn't.
cheers

Thought I'd try my hand at composite, it's the first time I've tried it. Needs a lot of practise, tell me what you think

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer or carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP or CRP), is a very strong, light, and expensive composite material or fiber reinforced polymer. Similar to fiberglass (glass reinforced polymer), the composite material is commonly referred to by the name of its reinforcing fibers (carbon fiber). The polymer is most often epoxy, but other polymers, such as polyester, vinyl ester or nylon, are also sometimes used. Some composites contain both carbon fiber and other fibers such as kevlar, aluminium and fiberglass reinforcement. The terms graphite-reinforced polymer or graphite fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) are also used but less commonly, since glass-(fiber)-reinforced polymer can also be called GFRP. In product advertisements, it is sometimes referred to simply as graphite fiber (or graphite fibre), for short.

This composite needed a lot of work in post to make the lighting look even remotely realistic. It was tricky because the background image was shot on a nice, but fairly dark evening, and the portrait image was shot on a very bright day. I used a location flash to light the faces of each image, which made things a little easier - it was just a case of getting a balanced contrast. I still think there may be a little too much contrast i my subjects clothing, which makes it look a touch out of place.
A pretty sloppily composited X-mas pic. Melissa on the left took the first pic and I took the pic of her so we could have a group portrait. So... photo by me and Melissa, whose website I also happened to design... See www.raphie.com/melissaferrer

Composite image - 1/60 s for the sunlit part; 6 s for the earthlit part.
I've done this several times before, but I think the blending worked especially well this time. It looks quite natural - a good approximation of what you'd see through binoculars.

Spinning a gear from an old clock was a common pastime when I should have been studying at school. On a level surface the gear would elegantly wander about, precessing to any applied movement like a well trained dancer.
This composite shot is made up of five long exposures of the gear spinning and one of it stationary.
This is a composite of a photograph and a underwater sonar image that I put together for work. We used a Kongsberg Mesotech scanning sonar for the underwater bit and a Cannon camera for the above water bit. The site is in at an old mill in Sandy Hook Connecticut.
Individual tiles have been stitched together with the imaging software to produce a high resolution composite image of the polished surface of the chondrite. Click in the image to zoom in on a section. Image width is about 17mm. Chondrites contain chondrules, small spheres of olivine and pyroxene in their matrix. Chondrites are a chemical fingerprint of the composition of the early solar nebula.

Early attempt at creating a composite featuring our 3 year old. Incidentally, this is her regular Saturday staff meeting to set Hans' goals for the week.
A composite generated with GraphicConverter of a whole group of flower photos. Most were sunflowers, but there were some hollyhocks, which are the large red component of the background.
3D Compositing with Cinema 4D 11.5. Took a full 360 panoramic photo to simulate the real reflections in the environment and applied it in Cinema 4D.
The sliding doors don't all open at the same time, so I did a composite. I've got my stereo, DVD player, VCR, art books, dvds, and videos in it now. I'm not sure what I'm going to put on top of it yet.
