Welcome to the Unofficial Screenshot Competition This is a fun and friendly alternative to the official Screenshot Competition run by DTG. Here you can share your weekly themed TSC screenshots using any 3rd party / post shot editing etc. creations which are not allowed in the official competition. Rules: TSC only shots allowed. Screenshot should be in some way (can be very tenuous) linked to the theme. Otherwise anything goes. You can enter up to 3 screenshots, posted as separate posts. You can delete and replace if you wish. 3rd party content / Reshades / Reskins etc. are welcomed but are not mandatory. Previous week's winner to decide winner (can't enter themselves). The winner chooses the new theme for next week (and becomes the new judge). The Judge of the week's decision is final. We strongly discourage any negative comment or criticism of another entry by a fellow contributor, this is a light hearted & fun contest! This is a major "we are all friendly" thread and we hope it will always remain so. Please keep chat to an absolute minimum. Entries will close at 9:00 PM GMT on Friday, May 26th and will be judged by me - Pookeyhead In the event of this weeks winner not responding by 5:00 PM GMT Sunday, May 28th, a new thread will be created using the theme with the highest votes in this weeks poll. Theme for this week : "Spring". Feel free to interpret the theme however you wish. Good luck to all, but most importantly, remember to have fun.

Damn, you beat me to it LOL, I have not been able to login to the forum all weekend due to DTG maintenance, but here goes anyway. Spring has sprung, and the "leaves" are coming out in abundance.
A beautiful misty spring morning on the Riviera Line. (thanks cscarpenter for the idea, loved your shot in last week's thread LOL)
An early spring morning S-bahn run to Mammendorf is just outside of Munich. Loco:- DB BR420 Route:- Munich - Augsburg
"Wifey" decided she preferred this shot over the one I already posted. I will let you guys decide who wins, Me or the Wife
Ok... here we go. As usual, I'm judging on best use of theme, and/or most pleasing image. I am not letting in game settings or addons influence anything. Not everyone can run at uber settings, or have access to all the addons. In reverse order...... [drum roll] 3rd Place: Blazin Just a really nice shot, with fluffy white clouds that despite not a lot of foliage on the trees, still feels like an early spring morning. 2nd Place: I'm a railfan obviously. Rich green grass. Nice blue sky, and a field full of cows. Feels like spring to me. The contrast of the red train is also a nice eye catching element against all that green. So that leave 1st place for...... Limeyfox Just such a cheeky interpretation of the theme, and love the lighting. It's literally a spring, smack bang in the middle of the frame. Just made me smile as well. Well done all. Good to see a wide range of rolling stock as well. So... over to Limeyfox I look forward to what you're going to set as next week's theme!
Thank you very much! I did not expect to win that, there were some very high quality entries. I will set up the following week’s competition shortly.
