terrain, plants, lighting, colors - fantastic! But the jets..

;D

I wouldn´t remove them, but I also have some issues with those mirages:
-the angle they are flying...I think that manouver would be very dangerous, looks like an "Abfangmanöver" very close to the ground (didn´t find the translation, can someone help out?)
-shutter issue: the planes are close and I guess they are fast. If you shoot them with a static camera, then the planes should be blurred to a certain degree. If the camera follows the planes, then the landscape should be blurred. Because of that the jets look very static to me and so somehow destroy the illusion for me.

I understand ! that was my main problem... this render is the 100th frame of the project but after several tries, i took off the motion blur. but you have the point. they look static indeed. too bad there is so much problem with flickering and crop renders... i'll see next time ^^ thanks man

Mirage trend ? :D

Mostly when i look at an image i nearly instantly like it or not.
Every body knows-maybe subconsciously if there is a problem with the image or not.
I hadn't a problem with the jets.
The tilt angle the wide FOV and the clouds shape and such was enough to give the sense of motion.
The image is crisp and the jets are far enough to not make motion blur much visible anyway(i think).
There could be jet trails or so but in real photos are many planes without such visible trails too.
Some times it looks like a cliche too !

Strangely i had only one real question to ask and it was about the light !
Thus i asked about the Sun position ;)
But Seth said they were in the same position. So i thought this is normal.
The light at the edges of the objects (i couldn't find the right word ) looked a little to much to me.
I though if this was possible with one light and with more then 1 in the same position .
It is it seems !

Seth this is a good image !
I wrote about the jets too ; I feel relaxed know  :)

the first sun has a strength of 4 and all tab are checked
the second sun has a strength of 2, but no visible disc and not glowing in atmosphere ;)
as for the enviro light, i kept the original one and then i add a second one with  strength 0.8 on surface and 0.2 on atmo... oh and i change the colour of this 2nd enviro light to a bit yellow ^^


thanks for your comments guys !!!
i really really like useful critics ;D
