Great realism and mood. Lighting ould be better as it could show off a bit more depth to the aircraft. Angle could also be better in addition to lighting. Overall a good shot but not a fantaastic one. Wink

I love it though.

The scenery is full, lots to see. Fine pic, maybe a bit more intensity in the overall color, seems the pic has a bit of a "flat" feel, otherwise a solid scenery shot ..Great sig though.. Wink

In this case you are right... and I saw it when I posted it

The image has so much information in it, it required I go down to 25% (thats a LOT) in Adobe Photoshop to get it under 150

So here is the same shot reduced in scale so I did not have to compress it so much but still had to drop it to 50% none the less.

The amount of digital information in an image drives the amount of compression required. In that shot, it was sky high

compression in shots like these is always a problem, but the scenery still looks wonderful, I would love to see it at full resolution too

the main detractions for me is the water it looks so.... poop! but I know thats down to the compression, also the ground looks weird... sort of fuzzt

the amount of detail in the shot simply can not be displayed withint such small parameters Sad
