    All of these are very well done and are true to the title: Modern.

    The top one I dont get tho because there isnt really anything in there.

    Just my opinion.

    Heres my ratings:
    Forward Unto Dawn-5/10
    Chill Factor-9/10
    Urban Decay-7/10
    Sin City-10/10 I love the simplicity of it yet it looks sort of elegant.
    Desolate Warriors-10/10 The horizon blends seemlessly with the snow to provide
    that desolate feel.
    Prosperity-9.5/10 Would have been a 10 if I had not already seen it.
    Circuitiry-7/10
    Flux-10/10 Yet again that simplicity that I love with the clash of Blue against Red.
    Metropolitan-7/10
    Sketch-6/10
    Cascade-10/10 It has an essence of Tranquility.
    Radiance-5/10
    We Used To Vacation-3/10 WTF?
    Orbital-10/10 Looks so.......cool
    Colour Blast-5/10 Would have been better if you zoomed in on one of the confetti to
    give it a colour scheme

    Thanks for the comment, man.
    It's pretty funny because you seem to like most of the shots I'm not very fond of.

    Wow, lots of incredible screenshots from campaign. I like how you got all the cool colors that don't include master chief. I really do not have a favorite, Im stuck in between the ones with the weird colors. Nice job, you can easily set yourself apart from other screenshot takers by thinking outside of the box like you have done. Hopefully one day, you bring someting new to Bungie Favorites.

    I definitely like the abstract shots from a video game. These are very original, and I rather enjoy them. You have a nice eye for detail. Take some more, please :)

    Dude, these are fantastic! Desolate Warriors has to be my favorite. I have no idea how you managed to get the Guardians clear in the picture, with everything blurred around them. Amazing.

    And the first one, with the (what seems to be) rips in the sky ... no idea where that is, but I love it.

    I could just sit here all day, and tell you how amazing I feel these are. But for now, I'll just say, keep taking shots!! For the love of my eyes, please do. These are phenomenal.

    Oh yeah, and I downloaded a lot of them to my computer, and set "Sin City" as my desktop background. Please take more, you are a screenshot genius.

    Thanks for the comments, guys.
    There's still a ton of places on the maps, as well as campaign, that I would like to take screenshots of, so keep an eye out for my threads.

    Also, for the last one I suggest taking it in a darker area and a closer camera angle so the confetti takes up more of the shot. I said take it in a darker area because that causes the confetti to be see through.

    There's a few flaws in your suggestion.

    The shot was taken in a cave, which is about as dark as it gets. Also, when you zoom on a piece of confetti, it makes the background darker. This competely rules out your "take it in a darker area" suggestion.

    Second, I called it Color Blast for a reason. I wanted it to look like confetti was blasting from something. The background is a mixture of darkness from the cave and the light-cancelling effect of the confetti mixed with the burst from a Brute's spiker. That was the theme, so I don't get why I would want to zoom up even more on a piece of confetti if it would make the shot darker and get rid of the background.

    Third, I know that zooming through confetti you get that cool picture in the box effect, but that's been done before and I'm all about originality and simplicity. If I were to go for that effect, however, and base it on your suggestion, it wouldn't work. Confetti, when zoomed in on (which is how I take all my shots) makes the background darker. If I were to take this shot in a dark area, and zoom in on the confetti, I would get a shot of nothing. It would just be a black screen.

    I hope you don't find this post rude or anything, I intend for it to be informative so if you ever try that effect (or anyone else), then you know the basics of it.

    I love all of them. I can't say anything bad about any of them.
