Very nice, was hard to pick, but 3 stood out. there is just something about the shot. maybe its the runway lights, or the color balance, along with the sun reflection on the water. either way its a well "photographed" shot!

Knowing which screenshot apeals to ourselves,  I can not help be wonder what draws others to make a different choice than my own. :D Obviously because we voted we saw something that made that one special screenshot standout from the rest, but what was it? There are several shots that capture the flavor of FS, that portray more than just machine and evnviorment. What made you pick one over the other? What makes a screenshot great? To me, 3, 4, 10 and 11 really stand out. The images engender feelings by conveying color, grace and power. Like most of you I found myself draw to 3 and 10, but the way the colors in 10 pulled the aircraft and everything else together won me over.  I got a distinct feeling of peace, power and grace from shot number 10, it left me with a smile and a warm feeling. I can not help but feel silly because of that.  Number 3 is a VERY powerful image, but the aircraft pointing down and away from me gave me an odd feeling, it wasn't quite as inviting.  Anywho there is my ramblings, would truely love to read your impressions. As it gives us the chance, if only for a second to see through anothers eyes.
