Around Duncan BC

Thanks.

Some pretty nice shots, but I would recommend cropping them. #2 and #4 would benefit from it. All of those shots though, I can see being cropped for more impact.

My kind of area ...

Those are some nice shots but I believe that Rob has a point, but I don't believe cropping would solve it.
I always like to bring the camera lower to the ground and tilt it more up, so that my shots have a little more 'air' (literally); a little more breathing room ...

Duncan BC ? Looks like a nice area to explore, I will give it a try later

Those screenshots are nice but there some points that you must improve, so here are some advises:

- avoid making screenshots with AI planes. AI planes have very poor models, it helps performance a lot, but it doesn't help the screenshots at all

- cropping is a good idea, you might have seen several members here have been using this technique to make the shots look more original. But to me, cropping is a little bit like cheating (it's kind of editing the shot), and I prefer the technique suggested by Harold: find a better angle of view, trying to hide the imperfections of the surrounding scenery, and showing the nice stuff as much as possible.

- the first shot has some nice weather (cloud formations are looking good) but the buildings textures are a bit blurry. I think this is because of the zoom. Instead of zooming IN, try to get closer to the plane and zoom OUT (but not too much). The blurry textures will not be a problem anymore

- the shot #4 (the one on the runway) is interesting, especially the nice forest  and mountains in the background. Choose another plane (without props issues for example), and try to move your camera around to find a nice angle of view.

the 3rd shot jumped out at me,  sort of moody with the way its lit, but very real looking.

I use both techniques; I generally take a shot that I really like and crop out any imperfections.

But I also use cropping to give the subject in a shot more impact.
As if I was using zoom ... like this or a more extreme example like this one

Thanks for the Advise just have to figure out on how to crop.

Thanks for the Advise just have to figure out on how to crop.

It's very simple. If you have no other program, just put it on paint and copy and save only the part you want by clicking and dragging that section.
