To get some ideas, I suggest to look on the aircraft picture pages around the web like [http://www.airliners.net Airliners.net].

In addition, it is always a good idea to think about what you actually want to show case. While a snapshot of an airliner in mid flight is -for instance- a nice way of showing it's latest features on the forum, it typically doesn't really last as an overall impressive screen shot. Placing the aircraft in a scene where some implied action is taking place will most of the time already make a huge difference. Capture the plane while it's banking, gear is retracting, etc etc, will imply some dynamic motion in your otherwise static image. In this respect, it may help to think of a little story, a scenario that you're reenacting. Trying to capture a few key scenes from that story may also help to make the difference between an average and an interesting screen shot. | ||
