Names Atomic. Actually it's Jason but as far as you're concerned, it's Atomic. I'm a community guy. I love almost everything about the bungie/halo community. Oh, And I blog.

Moment of Peace

"Moment of Peace" was another little attempt at trying photoshop techniques. This one required me to make a panorama as well as screen-shoting my character and a snow-mongoose and blending it in with the image.

I went with a little lighter and less action packed image. Simplicity rules my friend.

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

I love it!! The peaceful shots are always my favorites. Sometimes, in the midst of all the talk about BRs and spawn points, people forget to take a moment to admire the beauty of the game that Bungie created.

I don't know how to describe it... this picture feels....soft...?
I don't how to express the feeling in words, but I REALLY like it!

Great work.

I'm all about the simple pleasures of Halo. I often just find myself walking around campaign maps and checkin everything out. SO much time and work was created into this game, It's nice to take a break from all the fast pace action and just take a look around.

I noticed the tires of the Mongoose were a little choppy. Probably the clipping work that wasn't fully complete.

Here's a tip with snowflakes. To make it not seem like a flat wall of snow flakes, add snowflakes of differing size. Bigger, sharper ones to ones closer to the viewer, and smaller, barely visible ones further away.

Otherwise, I really like that image. Constructive criticism FTW.

I agree with you on both aspects. I will admit that I forget to blend the tires of the mongoose. After cutting out the spartan and the mongoose, I went straight into adding the shadows and blending the background.

As far as snow goes, I should have varied with the sizes. Noted for future reference :)

finally someone who appreciates bungie's work! ha, i love the scenery of halo also, and the graphics are only an asset to their beauty. i like the pic too, i like the feel of it, and the extra snowy feel is cool - snow FTW!!!

I like how the background is out of focus, it draws emphasis to the spartan.

Proud director of Black Plasma Studios. Check us out on Youtube!

I liked it, but being a photographer I have a few suggestions.

To give more emphasis on serenity, you should have just extended the side facing over the cliff to add clarity that the soldier was alone.

However the work was great!

Yeah I had a small problem with that. See, when i was getting the individual shots for the panorama, I accidentally knocked over my controller, totally moving the camera. So I would have had to start all over again to get the proper angles for the shots.

Let Sgt. Johnson die on Halo.

That's really cool man. It's soft, but it still emits a peaceful entity. Calms you down. I love it.
