WINNERS, WINNERS, WINNERS



Judge Mitch filling in for ShaneG says :

"Sorry guys but Shane is still busy moving house and is still without proper internet connection, so he handed his judging duties over to me where I had no choice but to accept. I felt sorry for Shane having to pick only three and now its down to me. Boy was it a tough choice, all shots are worthy contenders. Great job to all that entered. Again Shane is sorry he couldn't be here."





Frequent Flyer!!



...



"I absolutely loved this shot from the start. I love the look of those new HD clouds and this shot portrays them well. It certainly looks like a storm front I would not like to be flying in. The sky colours also help make the clouds stand out. Great job, well deserved win!!"



CONGRATULATIONS Frequent Flyer!!!!







"Lunitic_8 takes second place!"


...



"A late shot but certainly a contender for first. It gives the impression of an 'angry sky' and I would not want to be on that T7 heading into that kind of storm. You captured the lightning well and it looks very realistic. Well done Chad!!"




Third place is for Skoker!


...


"Well that lightning looks very menacing. Nicely edited Jordon, love the sky colours too which help make the lightning stand out. I also like the reflection of the aircraft, the only thing letting this shot down is the rain drops or 'lines'. Overall, great shot."







Nice work on a great comp!



Frequent Flyer is on the bench this week! I believe this is his first JC win. Can't wait to see what he comes up with for a theme. Smiley
A big congratulations to the other finalists, and great job to all that entered.




Cheers

Mitch.

If I had been able to get a shot with lightning in it today, I would have entered it here. The weather REX was producing was NASTY... as nasty as I'd ever seen it in FS. Outside my window it was nice and sunny though LOL

Don't feel you have to have lightning in the shot. Wink  One of my favorite edits of mine is the Cessna shot above, and it has no lightning, just one mean looking sky.  Wink

This may be an obvious question Shane, but is the lighting drawn/edited in on the first shot? Undecided Embarrassed

That was as PSP/PS plug-in called, 'A lightning Maker'  Wink


This effect comes as part of a set of free plugins from Almenthera here: http://punkinstuff.tripod.com/alma/almathera.html


The clouds were made using MuRa's Filter Meister Cloud plugin, also free here: http://www.geocities.com/Murakuma/mmplugins.html


All of these work for both PSP & PS, and any other program that supports 8bf plugins. Smiley
