Jack Sawyer Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 So I made a nice flight from beautiful Narvik to a nice airport called Evenes. Do my skies look too pale blue? I use PTA and ASCA. No REX sky colors. I was wondering if I should change the ASCA setting for a little darker blue skies. Opinions? The obligatory selfie shot.

VH-KDK Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Fantastic images Jack and yet another close up tour of the scenery. The sky does look pail to me but that is because I have a bucket on my head. Seriously though the sky here on the horizon is about the same colour as you have but a bit darker the higher up you look. If you like it then it is fine as what is on your PC is your individual world! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bermuda425 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Peachy keen shots for sure Jack! I like how the sky colors blend with the fair weather and puffy clouds. You could change the sky color for worse weather but right now I like it fine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adambar Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Whatever floats your boat Jack, the skies come in all colors, within reason of coarse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradB Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 If it was me , the sky could be a tad of a darker blue ; but everything on the ground looks just perfect . Let me know when you vacate Norway , I was planning a tour soon . Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulb Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Great shots Jack! . I agree with Martyn and the guys above. Sky colour very much depends on personal preferences - whatever makes you happy! When I have changed in the past, I have tested them out in different seasons and cloud settings. That gave me a better idea of whether I was happy or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillwater Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Narvik is a fantastic scenery, and you show it off so well, Jack! 3 hours ago, paulb said: Sky colour very much depends on personal preferences - whatever makes you happy! Basically I would totally agree to that. But I can add two more coins: 1) Given the high degree of latitude over there, the pale color is not uncommon - even in summer. 2) I had the same feeling on my initial flights in NZL, in summer. I used a darker REX day theme and see more variation now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluebear Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Fantastic shots, Jack !! Your sky colors are perhaps a little to pale, but from RL experiences not unrealistic. Cheers Bluebear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna change it today, I'll try a different set of REX sky colors as thats all I use, besides PTA but I don't want to mess with that yet. 10 hours ago, Bermuda425 said: Peachy keen shots for sure Jack!

I'll be doing one more airport tour then the skies will be "safe", but ya never know when you'll see an inverted yellow plane coming at ya from yer six! 4 hours ago, paulb said: Great shots Jack! .

Haven't changed them in a while so I wanna see if I can get a rad darker blue. 4 hours ago, stewart1 said: super set of shots Jack and the sky could be a bit darker and I enjoyed your trip regards stewart Thanks Stewart, I agree. 1 hour ago, Stillwater said: Narvik is a fantastic scenery, and you show it off so well, Jack!
