March 28, 201313 yr Hello All! I realize that all of you probably have better things to do, but seeing as I have to put pictures when posting in the screenshot forum, I thought I would post this here. I have made a new website with, as of yet, 28 of my edited FS pictures, some of which are on AVSIM, some not. If you want, drop by and take a look at it. If you don't like the pictures, don't like the editing, feel free to say so. Obviously nothing derogatory or offensive, but I really hope you enjoy these pictures. Quite a few cases of "Right place; right time". The link is below, so enjoy! -abasa12 fsxphotography.blogspot.com Derek MacPherson At the risk of sounding cliche, I love planes.GTX 770 / i7-4790K / 16GB DDR3
March 28, 201313 yr Don't take this the wrong way mate but, arnt these all screenshots? Not really appropriate to call it FSXPhotography... Still awesome though, really nice, and I do like the fact that you have provided proper details on aircraft and scenery too, which so many don't, and again, some cracking screenshots, so well done for that :-) What screen resolution you flying at when taking them?

March 28, 201313 yr Calling it FSXPhotography sound a helluva better than FSXScreenshots. Keep it the way it is. It grabs peoples attention more (See above) and thats what you need when trying to create a site like you have done. Best of luck Jack Cannon
March 28, 201313 yr Sounds great, but it isnt photography... Its just plane misleading... Richard... Amateur Pilot and UK Web Hosting Guru 🙂
March 28, 201313 yr Nice photos..and I like the name also. We simulate flying planes and you are simulating taking photos.
March 28, 201313 yr Its just plane misleading...Bad pun alert!!! Bad pun alert!! No soup for you. LOL Good looking site dude. Thanks Dan George (woodhick)Check out Greenbrier Aero Club, the VA for and about the GA pilot.
March 28, 201313 yr Nice...um...photos. Seriously. Well done. Gregg Seipp "A good landing is when you can walk away from the airplane. A great landing is when you can reuse it." i9 64GB RAM, GTX-5090
March 28, 201313 yr Commercial Member Don't take this the wrong way mate but, arnt these all screenshots?Not really appropriate to call it FSXPhotography... With the rise of games (and modifications to those games) in the last few years with seriously amazing graphics, there has been a rise of interest in gamers doing' in-game photography'. So yea, basically carefully screenshots with post-processing applied, but some people have taken it to a new art form. As a photographer myself, I cringe a bit at the association, but some of the same rules (such as composition, for example) apply. And to be honest, there have been a few posts in the screenshot forum lately that I'd be more than happy to print and put on the wall... Jim Stewart Milviz Person.
March 28, 201313 yr Nice work! No problem with the name either, as none of the planes mislead me at all. :rolleyes: Scott
March 28, 201313 yr And to be honest, there have been a few posts in the screenshot forum lately that I'd be more than happy to print and put on the wall... Absolutely... Nobody is questioning the quality... But maybe FSXArt might be more realistic.. Awesome screenshots, + Post Processing.. No camera + Not a real life situation = Not a photograph, so why try to sell it as photography... Richard... Amateur Pilot and UK Web Hosting Guru 🙂
March 28, 201313 yr Does it really matter? This is exactly why companies will keep selling "Unlimited this and that" with smallprint that says your getting the exact opposite... Go to a gallery viewing that claimed "Photography Gallery" to see great pictures that were not photographs, would you say the same thing? Search Google for something, and end up getting something different, does it matter? Neither cost you any money, but both didnt provide what you were expecting... Whilst it might not be a big deal, its misleading all the same. Richard... Amateur Pilot and UK Web Hosting Guru 🙂
March 28, 201313 yr Commercial Member OMG who cares what he calls it! Why do people always feel they have the obligation to tell people what they need to do.

March 29, 201313 yr Author I personally like the name "fsxphotography", but I tried 3 domain names before this (fsphoto, fsxphoto and fsphotography) all of which were taken, however only one of three being FS related (some nice shots on fsxphoto.blogspot.com). Thank you all for the comments. I really like editing screenshots. I have tried scenery. Design, livery making and video making (DMac10121 on YouTube), none of which are as easy, quick and enjoyable as screenshot editing. Nothing fancy here, just freeware Paint.NET and the default FS screen capture. I will continue to make edited pictures in the future. Before these pctures I had quite a few older ones, which I have posted on my YouTube channel. I'll probably post those to the website eventually as well. The video is called, as far as I can remember, "Screenshots in FSX (Set 1)" but I couls be wrong. In response to the screen resolution, I can't quite remember, however I do know it is the bottom one in the options in the FSX settings (but in basically all of my shots I have cropped the picture to some extent, whether artistically or to simply remove the menu bar or other display as such. Thank you all for the positive comments and I'm very glad you enjoy them! -abasa12 Derek MacPherson At the risk of sounding cliche, I love planes.GTX 770 / i7-4790K / 16GB DDR3
