In one word...boring.  It's nice, very good quality, nice colors, nice lighting.  But it's just too boring.  More clouds might help, a more exciting plane (default Cessna = yawn).

Sometimes simple things that you wouldnt even notice help, such as getting the sun or a bit of the sun in the top right corner or just a little land such as a mountain in the distance just peeing in at the bottom, or the occasional lucky catch of AI going by at high altitudes

I think you mean "Peeking"  ;D

In my opinion, the shot is really nice. As Jake said, it could use a little more than just the plane and some clouds though.

The plane is boring, as is the sky and lighting. Try using new sky textures, adding new clouds, and having some mountains in the background. A nice plane would help too.

Im sorry, but If I ever want a fly again, thats just not do-able. My system cant handle that kind of stuff.

Next time I will use better weather and Ill try to get a add-on plane in as well as some scenery :)

Nick, your shots have come quite a long way! 8-) I do like the simplicity of the first, although as ZeroTime suggested a bit of terrain in the background would improve the shot. Maybe if you played around a bit with the time of day, you could get some nice effects going on. :)

#2 - A nice, easy shot - I like the clouds in this one and I like the way the aircraft stands out from the background. Again, maybe some terrain peeking up through the clouds would help and a more creative angle, but nonetheless the shot is a good one. ;)

Ok, I can try putting more scenery in :)

For Jake: Its Mike Stones model, and I dont know how much better your gonna get... I do agree though that the repaint is low quality... best I could get though :-/ . But still everything you said has been heard :)

You have improved a lot... they're much better than your older shots....

The first one is good, but too boring... Maybe some other model/textures would help...

As for the 2nd... it looks flat... for 727s IMO the best freeware model is the Vistaliners one.
