Welcome to an all new competition!

This contest is one of realism. Each week a real photograph available as Freeware will be chosen as a subject. From there participants (i.e. you  Wink) will post a screenshot that is as close to the photograph as possible
without editing
. The winner is the person who is judged via a poll to have the most realistic screenshot. They then go on to choose the photograph for the next week's competition.  Smiley

Rules

1. No editing of any kind.

2. Screenshot must fit SimV guidelines: dimensions, file size etc.

3. All screenshots must be posted in this thread as a link or 5k thumbnail - we don't want to break the thread.

4. One screenshot per person: once an entry is submitted, it may not be changed or replaced with a different one.  This is to keep the confusion to a minimum, and to maintain forum integrity.  Entries may be withdrawn from the contest, but no additional entries from that member will be accepted.

5. The shot can be an old one, but given it's being based on a photograph, the chances of anyone doing so are slim.

6. Freeware aircraft only please, payware scenery is permitted.

7. The competition closes at 8pm GMT on Saturday 26th September

8. Please can the winner send the photo for the next week's competition to me by 8pm GMT on Monday 28th September.


This week's photo is here


Good Luck!


If you have any questions or suggestions please feel free to PM me or post here.
