Try Cumulus 49 and Cirrus 21, or even Cumulus 54, with "Touch of Smog" as the sky color, then set Orbx weather theme 1 or 3 in game. Should get something like this:

For water the "Sparkling" wave animation is by far the best, and combined with Flight Sim Water Configurator (FSWC), specifically Gizmos custom profile, you get this:

I love the REX2 clouds in the great white north in my home NWT. I've already had darn good depiction of Ice Fog Clouds.

Of course what looks great is always a subjective matter, but I love the "Supercell thunderstorm" sky color. It has dark and ominous feel to it and it makes clouds look brighter:salute:

Thanks! It's edited, but nothing drastic. Just contrast enhancement and a bit of vignetting added:mixedsmi:. The rest of the magic comes from REX2.

That is a beautiful picture! Is the rainbow part of REX?

I think what looks like a rainbow is a part of FSX default bloom-effect.

Been flying REX since it came out for both FSX & FS2004...

Really made the sim come alive!

I need help picking a new weather theme combination. The above shots look really great. Are there any others that people want to share?
