The early morning light and angle is very cool

Great shots!

Cool look    Is that the original background?  The canopy looks like blue sky on the opposite side- or just canopy distortion.

Thanks Keith!

Yup it's the original, just the angle of the canopy. I've got another shot while the plane is more level which shows the horizon of the mountains & sky also.

Wicked cool Jim!

The F-22 canopy presents several looks depending on angles, lighting, etc.  Sometimes it's totally reflective with the gold coating, sometimes not.
I found one that's like your's with the canopy bending the light so that the sky is present instead of the direct background.
