I overlooked the obvious. So here is the rest of my original post broken into parts.



Just beyond Grand Canyon Village and Yaki Point:

That last shot, to me, is the best-looking panorama in this serie.
The others look good as well, but in the last one the light on the plane makes it more visible, and the scenery shadow adds some sense of volume (which is already excellent in the scenery textures of course).

And of course, just like in your other topic, the VC view is just fantastic. Have you tried flying over there in formation ?

Good critique. I agree.

No. It might be interesting to do at some point, though. :)

Scalper and FT, thank you. Glad you enjoyed them. That part of the world fascinates me. I come from a world of close horizons and horizon to horizon green (during the warm months, at least). Out there, the sky takes over. Horizons are distant and you can go for miles and miles without seeing green.
