Dawnstar is a place I often go to test lighting and weather mods.

I am fairly certain from the timestamps that all of these are from Skyrim SE but I do not have notes as to the ENB. I believe it to be Keizaal with Patch for Aequinoctum and Obsidian Weathers.

The reason I believe it is Keizaal is that it is crisper and bluer than Rudy and some of the sunsets seem to be more vibrant than Obsidian’s.

These last two pictures were taken only a few minutes apart.

This is the Reach:

Which is very beautiful for a place so barren.

I also have a couple of pictures near Windhelm:

I believe that the first picture here is Keizaal and the second is Rudy, just based on the timeframe. I also started leaving Rudy letterboxed so I could distinguish it.

I got some mountain vistas here and there–

Top two are likely to be Rudy; the bottom two are Keizaal, and the middle ones are anyone’s guess due to the fog.

So I am continually astonished at how lovely SSE is at landscapes.These screenshots were actually one of my initial modding walkthroughs and are not what I’d consider a really finished setup. Many of them have vanilla textures here and there and I hadn’t even turned off my UI, so you may see elements of that in places.

Unfortunately I do not recall which ENBs are in which pictures. If it’s fuzzier and more soft-focus it is probably Rudy. Rudy looks amazing in-game but the way I had it set up did not translate as well into screenshots. That said, my most favorite of all of these pictures– the last one– is the one I took with Rudy.

So– weather mods are either Aequinoctum or Obsidian Weathers or Patch for Aequinoctum and Obsidian Weathers.

ENB is either Rudy for SSE or Keizaal. There may be a couple pictures with The Truth as well.

Ivarstead area–I love how the mountain shadows affect the trees here.

Notice how the mountains suddenly get better?

Yeah, we fixed that.

Majestic Mountains (Darkside)

I also like the skies over the plains and what the grassfields look like.
