Here we go again � with Judge JNC who won last weeks �Water� competition with THIS:



...






JNC obviously likes water, because he�s sticking with the said element in a rather more ephemeral state�.





�CLOUDS�




...




JNC says:

"Using clouds can be a great way of adding interest and depth to a shot. The Sim scenery can be stunning, however it can be very bland and flat. Simply framing the shot with a simple cloud cover can make a huge difference.

This subject is good for users of FS9 or FSX. Your shot simply needs to use clouds to show your chosen aircraft off to its best. Or, you may simply show a stunning cloudscape without an aircraft if you prefer.�




THIS WEEK'S RULES �


1. There can be payware or freeware in the shots, FS any version. Editing is allowed but no composites, as only a few people can do them and it's hard to compete with a composite!

2. The screenshot must show CLOUDS� aircraft are optional.

3. You nominate one shot only, as a thumbnail of about 5 kb. IT CAN BE AN OLD SHOT if you don�t have time to create something especially for the comp, though original entries are encouraged�. �Post it in this thread, below.
DEADLINE for submission of shots is 8 PM GMT on SATURDAY.

The judge will choose which shot is best and tell Krigl on Saturday or Sunday�
DEADLINE FOR JUDGE TO INFORM KRIGL: 8 PM GMT SUNDAY
The winner will be announced Sunday evening. �


THE WINNER IS THE NEXT JUDGE!


And, your winning shot goes into the Personal Portfolios!



...




4. The winner should decide on the next competition, and, by MONDAY NIGHT 8:00 GMT, send KRIGL one pic plus a short text to describe the competition and what they are looking for. Also send another couple of your best shots. �

We will start the new competition on Monday night, so people have 5 evenings to produce their entries.


5. This is for fun, so just post whatever seems to you to fit the rules. In the spirit of StudioV, we're all aviation and aviation screenie fans, and friends, and so just about everything goes. Rules are secondary, and no questions needed.

It might be an idea to check out our Judge's work, see what he likes.... � �

...



TWO 'IMPORTANT' NOTES �

A. The main point is that you get to be the judge � but the winning shot will also extend your portfolio�. �

B. If people don�t meet the dead-lines, don�t be surprised if Krigl makes the choices or even the competition for you. Studio V must �run on time��. �Sorry to be evil about this but it�s for the greater good, as it were.



...



Well, let�s see what everyone can rustle up on the airy theme of clowns. I mean crowds. Curse my deficient short term memory�. Off to read the rules again.

Here's one shot where I always thought the clouds give nice depth and a sense of altitude:

Only, there are four aircraft in this shot, I hope that is allowed? If not, I will find another shot.

I love the view of the wing and the clouds as well as the composition (wing, clouds, sun, sea and shore), I'm not sure about the starry sun, but I'm afraid I do not like the water, huge waves! I also think that the coastline is a bit straight and angular, that distracts a bit from the general composition.
