Want some opinions... / Screenshot Critique

[Wingo]

I've posted some screenshots up in the freeware section, all default FSX. I'll post a link (save reposting the images) and I would love to know what you think of them. I was mucking around with dawn and a rising sun with a few mountains.... actually more like large hills.

Images removed...

I thought they were great, but you need to read the forum guidelines

[Wingo]

I know the guidelines

It was a saving error in photoshop, some of the images were saved as a larger file size than photoshop said it would save them at which through out my calculations. Some were saved at 80kb instead of 40kb.

Anyway, I've reposted the images so they're ready to be criticised again

Wow! That are a lot of shots!

Right now I'll say that you should get rid of the red text in the upper right corner and that #2 & #3 look nice. Maybe I can give you some more feedback tomorrow.  :)

[Wingo]

Yeh, i know the red text It took to long to fade so i just took the shot anyway.

those are nice shots especially the last few but the first ones are to dark

Alright here's a tip:

Be careful with cutting off parts of the plane!

#2 is a very nice pic, but the right wing touching the edge destroys it. A better example of clipping is #7 or #10. The last two pics deal with the same problem as #2.

I really like #11.  :)

Keep 'em coming!  ;)

I think the pics are decent, one or two pleasing sunrise/sunset pics amongst them, but I can't find any drama or unique visuals anywhere in this set. I think posting one or two pics with "ooomph" would have made for better viewing. Try to focus on creating angles, colors, perspectives that are original to you and different for everyone to look at. Here's an example of what I mean..
Your pic post should be saying...here's my pic and the story it's telling is.....if your pic is just another aircraft flying around in just another scenery, it probably won't attract as much attention or accolades as you'd like. Give it a life of it's own...

..what's the first word that comes to mind when you look at this pic?

"Get rid of the aircraft and show more of those clouds."

[Wingo]

That would be F**k my right engine has gone... more of a sentence than a word.....

Those are some really nice clouds, what textures are they and will they work in FSX??

Thanks for the advice Clip, I'll try to get my shots to tell stories as well as yours
