Stranglethorn Sunset

Here's a couple of shots taken on chance whilst questing in Northern Stranglethorn. I think it really picks out some of the graphical enhancements made to lighting and water ( and better trees!) since the World of Warcraft Cataclysm expansion arrived.

 The real difference can be seen when compared to an older, pre-Cataclysm shot like this one..

 Of course its not all sunshine and isolated beaches where we would dream of spending some fantasy holidays, Northern Stranglethorn still has its dense, crocodilisk infested jungle areas!!

I hope you enjoy browsing the the pictures here, coming soon a few tips on taking screenshots and hidden settings you can use to improve the quality of your World of Warcraft screenshots .

WOW Landscapes, introduction

Hi everybody, Let's take this first post as a means to introduce myself to you all.

I play a Warlock on the World Of Warcraft MMORPG. His character name is Onogor and resides on Turalyon realm. I have played this character for a few years now, sometimes raiding , sometimes doing some Battleground PVP. Othertimes I may well just chill out exploring, questing or even just hanging around towns playing the Auction house for profits, ready to have the gold to spend in the next big patch or expansion.

But one thing I seem to do regularly is just fly around the WOW world, whether it be Kalimdor, Northrend or some of the redesigned zones after the Cataclysm, and always manage to find that 'wow' moment when a particular scene or familiar area in unusual lighting grabs your attention. Of course, its screenshot it or lose it !

Here's an example to open the blog with, taken in the patch before 4.03, when blizzard introduced some of the new graphical effects, long over due shiny water !, as seen here in the glorious afternoon sun at Booty Bay.
