      Thank you very much Xorp. This theme had me reeling with crazy ideas, but I'm glad this scene appeared in my travels and took hold.

    Better than Talos you say... Hm let me think maybe Azura Don't get me wrong he is OK... I think
    Excellent choice & image as well. I see you you still using Antique Dragon. Nice colored ENB that's for sure especially gorgeous blue sky.

      You are too nice. I'm not a huge fan of this shot, but it fit Rick's theme very well to me.

      I do love Antique Dragon and I'm still playing believe it or not! I recently added Breaking Bad to my mods with the newest version of Requiem and just got to level 14. It is a huge challenge! I'm getting video together to submit to show some of the game play.

    Good choice, Patrick!

    I was actually curious about seeing someone making a Talos shot for this theme. I had 2-3 examples of my own, but I scrapped them for the invitation set or else there would be very few ideas left to explore. So far, I haven't seen another Talos shrine either - if I'm not mistaken - so it seems you're alone with this contribution...

      Thank you very much Rick.

      I had many ideas for the theme and this was not one of them, but when I was playing this capture SHOUTED at me!

      Exploration is the best way to find what you don't know your looking for.

      It turned out I did infact have another Talos statue in the compilation, but it's been a great deal of contributors for this theme, so I can't remember them all I guess. You're also absolutely right about the exploration part...that's how I do it each and every time, when I gather images for the invitation to a new theme. Sometimes it's easy to get a good bunch of shots, other times you need to adventure hard to reach the perfect circumstances. I have the 14th theme ready, but I need more images, so this theme is one of those "adventure a lot" to get more captures. That's the downside with being the host... I need to cover a lot of ideas to send out the inspiration!

      Thank you very much Wade. I had some other ideas, but this just popped into my view and that was that.

      Thank you so much toorhum! I didn't set out to take this shot. It just came to me when I went there exploring. I had no idea what to do for this event.

      Thank you very much Simboker. I tend to be brief and simple, but I attempt to pack as much into that as possible.
