**spitfire222** · 11-09-2004, 01:22 PM

Hey guys, I just submitted these to a screenshot contest. :-)
Thought I'd post them here as well, any constructive criticism?
(Btw, the contest did have a theme: metroliners)

Enjoy :-)

Helicopters can't fly; they're just so ugly the earth repels them.

time at DPA. I think it's a day long course, and it starts by you preparing ahead of time by reading materials.

Great shots, Vincent! The skies are incredible in both. My only suggestion would be that the aircraft itself is sort of anticlimactic due to being entirely in the shadows. I think the shots could be even better if taken slighly earlier so that the sun was still peeking over the horizon. Not so early as to wash out the sky -- you still want those beautiful sunset clouds -- but early enough that the plane itself was awash in golden light. Just a suggestion. Nice work, though!

thanks,

Thanks guys! Appreciate it! :-)

Stephen, I'll let you know if you were opinion is correct and justified when the contest winners are announced! Thanks! ;-)

Thanks for the info Paul!

Jonny, mine doesn't have a panel either, so you're not alone. :-)

Carlos, mi amigo, gracias! Thanks for taking a look!

Bill, I agree with you, its a shame the aircraft had to be in shadow to see that particular sunset...I tried lots of different times....I'll try it again and see what I can get. :-)

Plus, no editing is allowed, so I couldn't adjust the plane for best lighting.

Thanks again fellas! Cheers! :-)

Best regards,
Vincent
