I don't know what's wrong, but I see no pics  Embarrassed
However, St. Maarten is fantastic regardless what.
So I'll go out with a limb and say: Nice pics!  Grin

Edit: Now I can see the picture!

It's very nice, really like the "clouds" of water being flushed up by those engines! But the belly looks a tad unrealistic (too dark maybe?). Probably the rains fault also, but nonetheless, it's not realistic. Try to even out the colors by chosing the selective color change (if you do edits in Photoshop). And the image looks grainy aswell. But I don't know if your intentions was to create a realistic scene at all, so take my criticism with a grain of salt  Smiley

Here's my edit of your pic:

Not sure what it is I don't like... (sorry  Wink).
In real life, the spray of water doesn't grow so much vertically like a wedge, like here. It more subsedes after a while. Also, I'd expect the right engine to throw up the spray a bit sooner, while I'm at it, the spray is visible on the grass as well. Which doesn't make sense perspective-wise. Better to cutout the plane and grass, do the spray, put the plane and grass back on top. (Perhaps it is the spray being too white?)

*think I'll keep my mouth shut now*

Love the shot itself as always, Peter123!

Here is mine, by way of joke in another topic.
...

See: spray too white and no good texture. Spray is difficult!

Reduce the opacity of the "Water Spray" layer and see if it helps....you did save the PSD, didn't you ?

Hope Peter did, I didn't. It was a joke, quickly done.
His shot is much better anyway.
