    Your Skyrim looks gorgeous! I am envious.
    I don't know which one I like better, this or the cabin.

      Thank you!
      It's a mix of visual mods, but no actual ENBs.

      I'm amazed at what you did without an ENB.
      I was hesitant about asking which one you did use.

      Let me see if I can actually recall what I am using... I do know that I have:
      Dyndolod (medium settings)
      Purity
      Imaginator (just for a few light colour tweeks)
      Dynavision (for a touch of DoF, though I don't like excessive amounts)
      Realistic Lighting Overhaul
      Grass on Steroids (short)
      Saturation Boost
      Triple D Sunglare
      FXAA Post Process Injector (the closest to ENB turf, probably)

      Plus, probably some others I can't remember, along with various mesh and texture replacers.

      Wow, everything I don't use.
      No wonder I mine looks so shabby compared to yours.

      I've seen a couple of your shots, they don't look shabby.
      The thing is with Skyrim.. there are just so many ways to skin the cat, so it's really easy to feel a bit lost in how to mod your game for visuals. Plus, you have to be so careful that everything works together.

      Plus I think it takes a bit of artistry to find good shots and angles, much like photography
      But it is definitely the landscapes that capture my attention. Hence why I'm droning on and on here.

      I meant to reply to this earlier, but I ended up distracted. Anyway, I know exactly what you mean in terms of the angles, and the shot.. seeing that moment. I find it extremely similar to real life photography... right down to my character risking her neck to capture a particular perspective (which I've been known to do with camera in hand o.O ).
      I also tend to capture similar subjects in the two areas.. landscapes and cityscapes, while people/NPC images are something I rarely do.
      I'm so depressingly consistent.
      Anyway, cheers!
