These are the first shots i've done in raw. I think i'm going to like it a lot. Much more control. Any help is appreciated.

Thanx,

While I'm certainly no expert, and frankly it's somthing that's a bit more subjective than most aspects of photography, but the saturation seems a little much in the first shot. I suppose if there wasn't as much yellow grass in the shot, it wouldn't seem so over saturated. Otherwise, I like the shot a lot.

The second is excellent, imo. The lines are absolutely killer. Very nice.

Just started shooting strictly in RAW myself and can't imagine ever going back :)

Thank you for your input. You are probably correct about the saturation. I had it bumped up ome to get it to print right befor I re-calibrated my monitor. This is with no pp.

Thanks again,

I really like the first one, the only thing distracting is the shadow on the bottome. The bridge is fantastic...the B&W conversion fits it perfect.

I like the second shot of the bridge. Good symmetry. Pity about the off-centre shadows on the floor of the bridge. Possible to shoot whilst the sun is directly overhead?

I actually liked the first one more with the colours oversaturated, it gives an unreal/dreamy feel to it and i'd have to agree with taygull, the shadow in the bottom is a bit destracting but it can easyly be fixed.
No criticism on the bridge...just great!

the bridge shot is awesome but i think you've boosted the saturation a bit high. a little unsharp mask of the origional would make it perfect.
