Stupid download problems. :-/ >:(

Nice shot though.  I really like the way you caught the craft's metal surface on the lighting.

Great shot. ;)

I was thinking of entering something like that but then I decided to enter a shot of Xpand's Orca.

Wouldn't count, lol. After all, the theme is the future of flight and as we all know, Star Wars was "long ago, in a galaxy far, far away."

As a semi reformed Trekkie, I would like to point out that is not NCC-1701-A, but NCC-1701 post refit, as unveiled in the first Star Trek Motion Picture.  NCC-1701-A replaced it after it was destroyed in Star Trek III/IV.  Ok, I'm done being a nerd for a while.

I bow to your nerdness, and am now kicking myself for the failure! ;D Although in fairness, the ST:TMP refit of the original Enterprise lacks the "-A" on the saucer, other than that the ships are identical, and I only said NCC-1701-A in an effort to differentiate it from the original series Enterprise, to avoid confusion in the screenshot, which, in retrospect, must make me a nerd of absolutely EPIC proportion. Mind you,

Very nice sci-fi shot indeed, great minds and all that :)

I'm gonna start an argument with a question:

What is the best Star Trek movie?

Of the original-cast six movies, they go 2 (wrath of Kahn), 4 (voyage home), 6 (undiscovered country), 3 (search for spock), 1 (motion picture), and then 5 (pointless crap).  ;D

Also worth a mention, of all of the generations and refits and looks and remodels of the Enterprise, the one above is my aboslute favorite version.

Second favorite would have to be the 1701-C, then the D, E, Original, and crappy B in last place. That's a better argument, lol!

Absolutely agree, Wrath of Kahn is by far the best. It has some brilliant dialogue, courtesy of Herman Melville. It would be difficult to create a story about blind revenge without some thought of Captain Ahab

"to the last I grapple with thee; from hell's heart I stab at thee; for hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee."

Bloody brilliant in context even though it was borrowed.

Star Trek 2 hands down the best of the any ST movies.  5 was just dribble, other than the first 15 minutes has nothing to do with any of the other stories.  The 1st movie, was quite long and just had a wierd feel to it to me, just couldn't get into it.
