That second last shot is really cool. Nice grey-scale thing...

Thanks. Other than cropping, that shot is actually unaltered/unedited. It was one of those misty winter battlefields where all the trees look white, but there's no snow of the ground. The light was coming from behind, so it gave it that grey scale look.

Heres the same shot from the other side, which shows a bit more color:

Amazing posts Forward Observer

I really like the picture of the castle, very peaceful. Almost makes you forget there's a battle going on.

Really nice, scenic screenshots Forward Observer. I like the ones with the charging cavalry in the field. You should post some to the screenshot contest running at the moment.

Great screenshots FO. Very artistic. The photographer in me loves them.

Wow, a lot of very nice screenshots here.

Now, if only there were some sort of contest where you could win a $50 game with your screenshot....

I will be posting something to the contest, but I was holding off--hoping that the DX11/10.1 fix was going to happen before the submission time is up since I wanted at least one of my two entries from the new game.

Also, I been using a two year old GTX285 GPU, which is serviceable, but have a new GTX560 Ti from Newegg due in this week. The new GPU should allow me to notch the game resolution to my native 1920 X 1200 and force AA through the Nvidia control panel without slowing the game up too much.

Due to a slight miscalculation on my withholding, I got an embarrassingly large tax refund this year, and decided to blow some of it on a new graphics card.

Cheers
