Congrats on the PostLumie. Disappointing finish for you, I'm sure, but perhaps that will help :-) I was one of your 9's, absolutely outstanding capture.

PostLuminous Award WINNER!
Fantastic image! Brilliant, luminous, dimensional, and vast sky, with appropriate scale given to the aircraft to heighten the sense of vastness.

Really like this shot. The sky looks awesome, and I like the sliver of ocean below. Only nitpick, the hint of the elements along the shoreline in the bottom right corner deduct from the mood of the shot for me. Crop that part off perhaps? Still, an easy 7 from me.

took too long to find the plane - hell of a try though.

Awesome cloud formation. I would try making a version cropping off the watter at the bottom. Its so small, it has little substance and takes a little bit away from the photo IMHO. I still like it a lot. 7

Love the contrast in the sky. Good PP work.

An amazing skyscape that works very well in B&W. The title kept me looking for the plane and it took a while to find it. The image would work perfectly well without the plane too. Good luck for the remainder of the challenge.

Great lighting. And the title focussed my attention back into the image to search for what it was that took off. Interesting!

awsome sky but could use a bit more of the water in the shot

Brilliant! One of the six 10s I have given in this challenge.

A good solid image that is crisp, sharp and properly framed and composed - a technical success in every way. From an artistic standpoint, it is an intersting image but of less than universal appeal because it takes too long to find the subject being located in the very right top corner - it is also much too small to have true artistic impact. A better choice might have been to change the title and crop out the plane and just go with the sky which is very dramatic. A good entry into the challenge.
