From what I've seen so far, these submissions are amazing.
Yes they are. But there also alot of duplicates and people who submitted more than one photo. Keep in mind that you aloud to only ONE screenshot. I don't know what will happen if you submitted two, but there is a way to get rid of tagged photos if you don't like your choice. If you have two photos with the tag "HSS Landscape", I think they won't use any of your screenshots. But to be safe, use one.
Some helpful tips that helped me with my decent screenshot:
-Try to keep SS effects/ special lighting at a minimum. They are looking for the landscape and it's beauty.
-If you take a picture, try and have the camera focus on just that. If you are taking a picture of the trees, and there's a little building in the corner, that will lower your chances.
-Try not to have flying objects, Spartans, or vehicles in your pictures. It takes away from the landscape.
-Don't worry if someone has the same picture concept as you. It comes down to, who angled it better and who captured the idea of whatever picture you are taking.
-If you do not like a photo, or have duplicates, you can also remove it by getting on Halo 3 and reloading it back up onto your fileshare.
-Take lots of photos of the subject you want to do. Make sure to hit a picture from a different angle each time you take it. Once your done, you can compare.
-When going through a level in theater, make sure to take your time. Things don't happen overnight. [Well, this will. 10hours left].
-If you don't feel satsified with your screenshot, go back and take it again.
-See how your picture compares to HSS standards
-See how your picture compares to the competition
-Tag count and rating boosting will not affect the outcome.
