Nice shots... i like that second one with the island and the runway..

Oh and if your PC is so old that it doesnt have a dvd drive, you probably dont have hardware that would run FSX anywhere near good enough to take a worthy screenshot. I know by experience :S

I agree, the shots are beautiful, I cant wait to upgrade to a computer that can handle FSX, I have FS9 and cant even max that out with my machine.  :-/    someday....

Hmmm. I really don't like light bloom, it is just too distracting to me, but that is not the reasong why I don't like this series.

The aircraft is not interesting (everybody knows this thing already), the clouds could be more dramatic and composition wise these shots are not very challenging; there's not much too look at apart from the sun.

As for the post: allow me to give you a tip that Dave (Fly2e) once gave me, when I was posting shots that were cropped so that they looked like extreme widescreen images (800 x <450): give the images a little more 'breathing room' by adding more white space inbetween. This way the wide screen images don't seem so compressed.

Hope you're not offended ... just trying to bring a point across and give a tip ;)

But the bottomline is: I've seen you do much, much better Zero!
