Capture Scenic Screenshots That Show Off the Celestial Look

Prepare your view

The shader's soft, bright, sky-inspired style is made for screenshots. Before shooting, follow these steps:

1. Hide your HUD:

• Press F1 on PC, or
• Turn on Hide HUD in Settings > Video.

2. Raise Render Distance for long landscape views.

3. In a world with cheats enabled, use /weather clear and /time set to control the scene.

Scenes that match the pack's strengths

These ideas come from the kinds of shots the pack is shown in:

• Snowy biome at midday. Use /time set noon in a snowy area. Bright sunlight and diffused lighting create a clean, glowing scene under a bright sky.
• Spruce forest at night. Use /time set night in a taiga. Look for the purple night sky with glowing stars above the dark trees.
• Ice mountains at sunset. Use /time set sunset near a frozen ocean, then face the sun across the water.
• Foggy pine forest. Stand inside a dense taiga to capture a hazy sky with blocky clouds.
• Underwater ruins. Dive near prismarine structures and frame glowing lanterns or entities against the deep water.

Framing tips

• Include some sky or water in most shots. This shows off the celestial lighting and the reflections.
• The pack balances brightness and contrast on its own, with color grading and midtones that make shadows and highlights pop. Shoot when the light is clear rather than during rain.
• Take the same shot at different times of day and keep your favorite.
