Right now, I think I have Hybrid white 10 cloud theme, No Waves burnt in water theme, Colour beast sky theme, and calm lazy water animation. I put an explanation of how I get my skys at http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb2 ... studiov/20.  It isn't meant to be a tutorial, just an explanation..

Nice ... but I'm starting to find them 'forced artistic' instead of realistic.
Just a matter of taste though ... the shots are still nice.

Now that is strange. If a shot is realistic, you say that it could/should be more artistic. If it is artistic, you complain about the realism. I can't get much more realistic that a Canadian Helo flying over ice and snow on Baffin Island. Anyhow, thanks for the compliment. I personally was somewhat disappointed in the mission. I was thinking that I would find more interesting scenery up there. I surely wasn't expecting all the compliments when I posted them. I find that to be somewhat true in life in general. You tend to get what you don't expect and not what you do expect.

I do need to try to get away from all the dusk shots. I feel that I am posting entirely too many of those and need to find something else that you guys (and/or gals) like. Bear with me while I work on it.

Oh, I'm not complaining at all. I'm just trying to give some constructive feedback.
I do like the shots but I'm trying to persuade you to use some different skies ;) 8-)

Some well composed shots, but I find the colours to be a little too over the top. They are definitely a step up in visual appeal from default FSX, but still a tad too vivid. ;)
