WINNERS, WINNERS, WINNERS



Judge JSpahn hath spoken! and his choices are :







ManuelL!



...


"This one has many different elements which I think make a good landscape. 1st the sunset, reflections and cloud cover look great, but overall the whole composition was unexpected, I have never seen a shot here which had this look. All in all this one was the most unique and creative."




CONGRATULATIONS ManuelL!!!!




In second place, Mitch


...


"Although a bit unrealistic, the sky really works well with this cityscape. Additionally the cranes in the shot bring an element of realism. Its very well done,  but it looks flat to me, maybe a different angle  would bring more interest."



In third, Bob70


...

"I love this one, the sky, beautiful autogen trees and the scenery choice are fantastic. The only thing that killed it for me was the angle and distance of the aircraft. Personally I think it would  look better without the AC."


JSpahn



Nice work on a great comp!




Cheers

ShaneG

This should be interesting. Those of you with REX have an obvious advantage to begin with, which means the rest of us, especially those with 2004 and not the most powerful systems, as is my situation, will have to be quite resourceful in order to remain competitive.

Roll Eyes

I'm just saying......

And besides, I think he wants large areas pictured...not just airports.

Time to pull out the special addons....  Cheesy

EDIT: My entry...not much, but I couldn't think of anything else.

Here's one from me:
one of my favorite spots in the world, the Pilbara in Western Australia.
Huge expanses of nearly nothing, except for some of the oldest rocks in the world. Makes you feel very insignificant...Wonderful memories, that have received a big boost since Orbx brought out AU Red.
If you look closely, you can spot an aircraft in this shot too...
