The "Game Photography Contest", March 2017 Edition

Thanks to muratogut, RadonGOG, benderz, Ragnarblackmane, Laulajatar, genkicolleen and Vythonaut for the previous contests!

This contest's theme is: Favourite. Going for a bit less specific topic this time, so just post your favourite sceenshot :-)

The rules from the original Game Photography contest by muratogut apply:

Contest: Take a photo from a game, and put it here. [...]

Rules (important):
1- These pictures must look like a real photograph and without the game interface, chat panel or any similar panel.
2- This is not a screenshot contest, so "hey look at my high score" or "phear mai l33t skillz" type of screenshots will not be counted as a photograph.
3- You can use minimal photo editing, like contrast, sharpness, hue, brightness adjustment, but please no photo montages.
4- Suitable photography forms and techniques will be accepted, aerial, architectural, cloudscape, landscape, street, wildlife photography etc... Treat the contest as an art contest, so you don't have to do things like photojournalism, documentary photography.
5- Don't cheat. If you put a picture that doesn't belong to you and this is detected, your picture will be out of contest. Take new pictures for this contest.
The prizes:
* A $9.99 game from gog - random draw
* A $5.99 game from gog - for screenshot I like best

Entries will be closed on 31th March 2017.
Please state clearly if you are in or not.

Not in, but I did just experience a solar eclipse in Subnautica (is it still called a "solar" eclipse if the star being eclipsed is not Sol?), and grabbed a screenshot of it.

Good question! We call it plain "eclipse" (from the Greek word "ἔκλειψις" which means "to cease to exist"). "Solar" & "lunar" derive from the latin words Sol & Luna and we just use these names to better describe which celectial body has an eclipse. I guess we can make similar names for other star systems, for example "Centaurian" or "Arcturian" eclipse (even though it isn't confirmed if Arcturus has/had any planets around him).

Well, it seems linguistically wasteful to have to coin a specific term for each individual star. Perhaps "stellar eclipse" would be adequate?

*laugh* Oh well, it is not like you are stricly limited to post only one screenshot ;-)

Great pictures until now everyone!

Yes, but only if you refer specifically to star eclipses.

It's not like I've ever done that, anyway. ;p
