Great angle, and perfect compostition and lighting, but since the camera is so close, the textures look a little blurry and the canopy looks a little out of place since its so red. You certainly did the best work possible with the limited graphics of FS.

Hee heeeee! Looks like a cartoon to me!  ;D

Just tried something and it didn't work out. I usually toss out the failures but I decided to post it just to show the kind of thing that ends up in the recycle bin!

The model ain't so good. Had to take out a lot of those octagonal corners similar to what you see in the intake. It definitely wasn't worth the trouble!  ;D

Thanks, Immelman!  :)

It's actually from SFP1 series. Just couldn't quite make a silk purse out of a sow's ear, hee, hee!  ;D

That canopy looks awful here but it looks real good in the daylight in the air.  ;)

It's dissapointing that many times, compostition is ignored because of focus on realism and texture quality, but this image, and i know i said it before, has beautiful compostion.  there is something to focus on at first, then lines to take the eye to another point of interest and have it move all around the image.  The rule of thirds is used to great effect.
Just wanted to reiterate that.

Yes like a cartoon, I think you couldve done much better, maybe have Trogdor the Burninator flying. I have to say it's not as good as some of youre others, but I guess it's a good shot.

Hee hee! They say that the difference between an amateur photographer and a professional is that the professional gets to throw away most of his shots!  ;D

They do? Oh right they do! That reminds me of what my dad used to tell me;
"You'll never amount to anything! Now get me another beer!" I don't nkow how that fits into here though, It just reminds me of what he used to say.

Ooops! Sorry, Immelman, missed your second comment. Thanks again, M8! Much appreciated.  :)

Here's a crop out of the capture. You can see what I mean about the "octagonal corners"!  ;D
