This Weeks hotshot is:

Predator of the night!

Image
Image from 9thSimplex thread: "Owl Prowl"


Well..
Simplex have done it AGAIN!!
Created a marvellous edit, with fantastic dark colours, and a atmosphere that you'll only find in world war 2!
And it's amazing with all those details, from the gasoline pouring out from the drop tank, to the sharp moon lightning the scene up, and the clouds covering parts of the moon, and even the contrails from the engines are included!! :D
This one just need some little sepia, and it would've looked like a real picture! ;) :D

I'm just thinking: Poor Lancaster's.. they're dead meat in a minute or two.. ;)

Cheers Theis

Thank you for this honor!

Well krigl... problem is the size.. the common screenshot with around 1600px width in the best case doesn'T make a good print in sizes over A4 unfortunately.

9th, why don't you describe some of the technique you used in creating this marvelous shot? I'm sure many (myself included) would appreciate understanding how this quality of image is created.
Theis, you've shown a keen eye again in selecting this screenart. Well worthy of entry into our prestigious Gallery, doesn't everyone agree?  :)
