The subtility to this shot has mad it astounding. I like the very sweet colours and overall soft feeling about this "painting", a feeling added to by those misty peaks. The edit on the plane makes it just soft enough to blend in nicely while remaing in focus. I like it very very much. ;)

I'm submitting this to "Flying" magazine as  potential cover art.  ;) When you create a dream like atmosphere as you do here, it's got to merit serious Gallery consideration. A resounding yes from me.  :)

Ok then... It's certainly a very nice screenie and well done! But I voted no because I think the effect a bit too surreal for me, the lighting is too weak and I'm not really a fan of the purple tint showing itself on the aircraft. Hope this helps!

Anyone voting no is a rotten egg.

::) A mature, contructive comment there.

For me, it's a no. My criticism?

Well, for a start, I'll say that I do like the scenery below, that does look nice. However, where I think it lacks, is on the plane. Although the background is pretty much in soft focus, I think the aircraft would benefit from a sharper image, to bring out the detail in it.

However, what gets me, is the halo like mask around the edges of the aircraft. Although you may be trying to add to the effect of the whole image, I don't think it does it any favours, taking the quality from the image.

I'm not overly keen on the lilac tint to it all, either!

There's my humble criticism. ;)

Thanks for the comments.  ;)
I see these more as opinions of what individual people like and dont like to see due to their personal tastes, rather than something that can be done better to improve the shot. But thanks anyway; maybe another shot will be more to you liking!  ;D
