Number 2 gets my vote this time.
Nice angle, lines and colors...

my critic on the others:
the megascenery pic, #10, would have been better with a whole plane and not just a wing....but the screnery is very nice and realistic...

I don't personally like #11...

#19 would have been much nicer at an angle at higher res, but it also has some very nice scenery...

#17 is a nice plane, but a little too..."cartoonish" for me.

Pretty much everything else is alot of the "usual", except for number 2, which is the most "likely to be put on a wall", good job #2, you have an artistic eye...

Actually, number 9 would look best printed and framed.

Actually, I couldn't disagree more.
No offense to the creator, but while #9 is a great shot, its a usual shot of the usual landing plane. The buildings lack texture and are lifeless....and the lighting is inaccurate.
I get no "feeling" from it at all.

#2 on the other hand. The plane is perfectly lined up dead center with the runway...well pretty ###### close....The lines of the other runways give the picture a perfect "depth" quality. The lighting is great and with the colors, gives you a very nice sense of the time of day and enviroment. You can almost feel the cool air.
All of these combined with the plane, and you can feel the plane taking off....you can see the plane in motion...

Now that's the kind of picture I want on my wall.

Just my opinion...

What kind of plane is number 17?

Also, #11 looks like a real plane wing, with fs scenery in the background...
But I'm sure it isn't...

My vote goes to #3.

To the creator of #3- Great Job :o It's an interesting plane placed nicely in the frame and has a little bit of everything....sky, water, land. Just a good shot overall. B)

Granted it's not got the best graphics, but it's got other things IMPO that make up for what it's lacking. Again, Great job.

if that 'non-edited' lightning pic is gonna win, I'll never enter this contest again
I'm sure its all a coincidence pressing the printscreen button on the 1/4 of a second when that lightning struck
