It took me about 20 mins to get that shot, i just cant quite manage to frame the aircraft and find an angle i like and get something else happening in the shot like an airport should be, military jets are so easy...just bombing along at low level or soaring above the clouds Grin

and thanks for the rating Wink

You're worrying about nothing; the aircraft's perfectly positioned and there's enough background stuff going on to keep a person occupied for 20 years! Shocked

On the real word side, that is a lot of flap for take off Wink

7.5. Quite a nice angle but I think there's a bit too much depth, resolution wise. Leaves a fair bit of dead space, like the empty taxiway right through the middle of the shot, which could be eliminated with a bit of cropping (or zoom) and a slightly altered angle.

Very nice ... looks like you've got inspired Grin

I don't really like rating art (as expression and taste) so I'll give it a 10!

Very nice screenshot.

BTW: you 'forgot' to remove your default AI Wink

The top of the image looks empty even with the AI aircraft...Some jetways would've been very nice along with some airport traffic...The bottom of the image is almost way too "heavy" with the main action taking place there...

I'll give this a 7.5 Wink

8.5

Great loads of traffic and detail. The default AI ruins it a bit and I find the sharpness of the plane a bit distracting from the shot. All and all a pretty well composed shot. Wink

NOt much wrong with this unique perspective. The principle aircraft is so well positioned. You can almost feel the lift. 9.0

Remember, if anyone receives the necessary 90+/100 in the first 10 rates to their pic, it's uo to you to let me know, so I can put it into our Gallery.

Just thought I'd post the total so far; from 9 ratings, Tom has 80.5 points.

So he needs a 9.5 or higher and it's in the gallery. Cheesy

Just out of curiosity, how does one remove the default AI?

Go into your fs9 directory then go to the folder scenery then the folder world then the folder scenery and there should be a file called traffic030528.bgl move that out of the folder into your documents or something so that you can put it back if you want to Wink

A beautiful shot Tom, excellent composition and I really like the angle!

I give it 9.5.

The only thing stopping it from a 10 for me is the presence of some default Ai. Nevertheless, a fantastic shot!

Neil
