I had some rather positive feedback in the payware screens about this shot, do you think it's worthy of our oh-so-pretty gallery?

...

Vote Flyboy and be a winner! Tongue If not, it's alright. I know it's not my best shot around, but people seem to like it. Smiley

The sky is very impressive (Shocked) , and would make a great base for a shot. But the plane is just not doing it for me. Just too dark, bad angle, etc. It doesn't compliment the background, so no.

if there was no graphics card then there would be no screenshot  Grin Tongue

Anyway i have to say no, mulitiple reasons, no AA is the main one, but not much you can do about it, also the anlge isnt one of my favorites and the plane is quite dark.

I think the sky is an absolute killer in this shot. Sometimes composition can make up for a lot of technical deficiencies. Definate yes from me!  Smiley

A great shot!  But i would have gone a bit closer to the plane. Composition could have been a bit better.  A very close no from me.

I don't care much if there are jaggies or not.  If "no jaggies" is the standard, then people with lesser systems have no chance to get into the gallery.

To be honest I reckon no jaggies is importent. At the end of the day a screenshot has got to be pretty, and jaggies aren't! Besides, with a bit of time you can edit them out...
