Firstly, there are alot of nice screenshots on here, and some are just fantastic

Thankyou Snowstriker for starting this thread.

Also, I decided to take this oportunity to take a few snaps of the little details in the game (of which we sometimes miss)

For this, I took a ship from Limsa Lominsa, and continue my journey on foot to Ul'dah. I won't post them all, as i took looooads lol

This is behind the ship, I thought it was a nice touch to have the water effects of the ship moving across the sea

At night time, the moon even reflects off the water, the reflection breaking on the waves.

These two are of the same spot. The first shows the weather effects of the sandstorm. It gives a great feel of being stranded in an endless wasteland

The second is to highlight the detailing on the wooden gate, from the etching, down to the small bolts you can see on the nearest post.

Not only was it fun to walk up to the Marmot and watch it run around, but the large pillars were great for giving that 3D effect.

I simply couldnt resist taking a pic of a tree, even in a barren desert lol

Small but colourful plants like these are really fun for the eye, and break up the landscape enough to make it interesting

Nothing significant about the surrounding here, I just had fun taking this one

as well as open landscapes, sometimes the land will suddenly close in. Not quite a cave, but eerie to enter this chasm durring a sandstorm!

This one, i really liked how the plants were placed at the bottom of this ledge, giving a very untrodden look to the land.

I'm sure man would agree, it is a heartwarming sight when you see your destination on the horizon.

FINALLY reached Ul'dar!!! With a little wave that was the end of my photo session.

Sometimes it is worth taking the longer road, you never know what small treats await you. I personally had alot of fun doing this. Maybe next time i will be allowed some clearer weather hehe.
