November 20, 20169 yr Wow! It's hard to explain what I mean, but some photoreal shots look more "real" than others. With photoreal, there's usually one or two minor (or major!) indicators that you're looking at a sim screenshot, impressive though they may be. What I'm getting at is shots 6 &7 over the canyon - the angle, the lighting, the sky all come together and might as well be photographs of the actual terrain rather than pictures laid over a detailed mesh. They make the Mooney stand out as clearly a flightsim model, as if someone has photoshopped it over a real picture. Like I said, hard to explain, but I hope you get what i mean.

Thanks very much for commenting....You're right the scenery is made form aerial photo laid over a detailed mesh...the photo captures the actual color so that elements of sandstone, limestone, granite, igneous and metamorphic rock can be distinguished...also erosion pattern! What a majestic scenery Appreciate the comment....Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico are very scenic! HLJAMES
