#2 does it for me

Great looking scenery. Well done!

very nice! but number 4 looks a little washed out. unless you liked it that way

Very nice sesion, i like the colour.. perfect!

#2 for me too!

Very nice. Really like 1-3.

Q

Thank you guys! =D Some good things come of spontaneous days.

Great stuff.

I do have a question. I think you really nailed the exposure with regards to the sky and the subject (neither are blown out). How did you accomplish this? Are these single shots with a filter, multiple shots using bracketing and then combined in post, just a single shot without a filter? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Q

thats my favs too

Thanks guys.

To answer your question. I shoot with raw. I tend to meter for the sky and fix the subject later in photoshop. I edit the raw for good sky color ... then open the raw file again to meter for the subject.. I then put those 2 together and mask the subject/sky (which ever is less work =P ) and some color boosting to get more greens and blues =D

Hope that helps ! =]

#1's my favorite, but they're all impressive! Great work!

great series, number 1 is my favorite.

Beautiful series! I love the lighting, color and composition. Your model (girl friend?) is also lovely as well. You certainly have to be a master to be able to pull this off so spontaneously. The day I try to pull over on an interstate, I'd have a State Patrol giving me a ticket.

1-4 for me. Awesome!
