@Ladusa
those tanker cars look awesome, what grf have you used.

@YNM
A+ for powerlines

[Ladusa]

Ehm, for my screenshot is very important description to understand:

Code: Select all

 Locomotives from Škoda TRANSPORTATION factory in Pilsen :) 
(2x freight class 363.5 ČD Cargo and class 380 ČD on Eurocity train)

And tankers in my screen are from Alternative CS cargoset from tycoonez.com (czech tycoon community)

[Muzzly]

... Alternative CS cargoset ...

Thank you, you have my vote

[STD]

All screenshots are beautiful. All liked. Look them several times .
But the voice give the screenshot Valle. He drew my attention to the tramway in a Park area .

I voted for Alluke...I visited a few Finnish ports (Mäntyluoto, Kaskinen and Kokkola) and it looks very real!

[TinyMusic]

I voted for Valle for the lovely tramlines and the park and the central station, but I was tempted to vote for YNM as well, mainly due to the powerlines (I knew that he has the artist inside him somewhere, but he's to shy to let it come out), and also the realistic station configuration and line approach as well. My suggestion for YNM is to use a different building set, and also use a bridge set that has UK roads in it.

And why others do not write who voted for what? It is interesting to know the opinion of somebody who voted .

What he said there's not much more to be said other than Valle submitted an IMO rather perfectly crafted shot.

The October competition is now open. The theme will be announced soon.

[STD]

I congratulate with the victory, Valle . Waiting for the next theme. Would really like to know what the topic will be this time .

[Valle]

Wow, I never thought you'd like my entry that much. Thank you all!
Competition was really strong, well done to everyone. My favourite shots were those by Ladusa and alluke.

The next topic will be very general as well, leaving lots of room for creativity - it's called "Postcard Panoramas".

An interesting choice of topics. And possible more in detail describe the topic? What can be shown on the screenshot .

It is a fairly open topic. I'm not sure how well it translates into your language - things like 'eyecandy' and 'picturesque' come to mind though.

As a general announcement: I will not be around too much, if at all, between January and March 2014. Possibly enough for the occasional visit to the forums but no time to dedicate to running this competition. Does anyone fancy taking over the reigns for those three months in the New Year? Obviously if you really enjoy it I will not necessarily have to take over again afterwards. Feel free to PM me or reply in here if you are interested.

[ISA]

Feel free to PM me or reply in here if you are interested.

I think that I can handel this little mission for You!
I have some days when I cant be here, but most of the time I can, due the work I have!

[The Irish]

I try to open the competition then with the following entry.

The Screenshot is called: The Santa Fe Express "City of Zamora" blasts through the tiny village of La Palma on its way to Oruro while the local stops and awaits his return trip on platform 1.

The Santa Fe Railway Company uses these kind of post card panoramas to advertise their daylight cross country passenger service. While flying has become cheap over the last few years, Santa Fe wants to attract the rail enthusiasts to go an a "Railway Cruise" through the countryside, forgetting the stressful and overcrowded big cities.

EDIT: Re-take with some more care after suggestions from "Swiss_fan 91". Thanks mate.
