Cloud9flyer, its very nice, however, the colour/tint of the plane does not seem to match up to the scenery. The same could be said for the lighting. And also the plane is just too shiny to be viewed as real. ;)

Very nice.
Just a preferential artistic choice, if you are going for a relaxing, paradise-type look, a military plane probably isn't the best plane to use. Try a nice GA aircraft. (IN the likely chance I misidentified it and its not a military plane, disregard as coming from the idiot that I can be sometimes)

Thank you all and bok, the plane is an ex-military Seafire. And nowadays it would probably owned by a rich tycoon rich enough to live in paradise

Nice compo, a bit below your usual standards... but way above mine ;D
The shadow looks good but if it's nearly under the plane the sun must be directly above, and so the wings would be more or less horizontal i.e. in line with the frame and they would look short and fat, and the body of the plane fat too - your shadow as depicted would only look like that if the sun was more or less in the same plane (

) as the wings off to the right of the pic, and in that case the shadow would be 'out of shot' to the left. Or am I mistaken :-?

Something you may want to try to get the shadow at the right angle is to take another screenshot at the same angle that the sun would be. So if the sun was directly above take another screenshot right above the plane, then use that image for the shadow.
Let me know if you don't understand and I will try and specify. ;D
Nice edit BTW
