I would personally go with your entry for this week for the contest. Anyone can take gorgeous landscapes (I've seen a lot of repeats over at xivwallpapers.tumblr.com), but the shot of you huddled up next to the Amal'jaa is pretty unique.

As for this week's ENTM: Stephen Fairbrook and I had the EXACT same idea and I went through at least 200 shots trying to get an angle that I was happy with at that darn camp! I don't have my favorite outtakes available because I'm at Anime Central and on my laptop this weekend, but I have quite a few that ended up with a similar pose. I love the ixali story the most out of the beast tribe so I knew I immediately wanted to do a shot there. The big problem is that you can't go on the lower platforms. One of the pieces of feedback I and others have gotten is making sure that the character "pops" from the screen, so that's why I ultimately went with the up close shot in bright light.
