the first one is believable but i think the rest are computer generated or altered in some way.

The shuttle one has to be CG

Don't know if there is any CG effect to the photos or not but I am pretty sure they are real. Here are some sights for some more battleship and shuttle photos. Trying to find the F16 photos

The shuttle is deffinetly CG, only because I can't think how they positioned the camera otherwise (It couldn't be on top of the launch tower, the dust and smoke on takeoff would block the view). The first one.... not too sure.

look at that last link, they tell how they get the angle, and i don't see the problem with the helmet and the ground

I believe they are all real. The shuttle one could be done with a high powered lens easily.

I say they're all real photos, with some color adjustment for effect. Any good developer will do this though. I have had some photos developed which I took from inside a fire & if I ask, the developer will bring out the red & oranges in the flames. This can be done very easily digitally of course. Real is my bet.
