Cool!


I'm a big fan - The colours really pop in this one. I also like your composition.

According to my "expert" opinion, those are really lovely images! I, too, like the composition and colors. Good job. Makes me inspired to go out and shoot some fall colors that are about to get pretty vibrant here in Oklahoma.

Were these the colors out of camera, or was there major saturation adjustments? Ha I ask because I have the smae setup and my colors are rarely even remotely that vibrant.

Thank you all for your comments!

"brybry57", as Imentioned at the beginning, post-processing was involved, but no new constructions. All color elementswere captured in the original photos and CP filter was used. Tonal adjustments and sharpening in CS3.<o:p></o:p>

Love those shots. It would be sweet if you could slap some information on the photos so that we would know what you used and how you captured the shots.


Keep up the good work!

Its easy, just crank the suturation slider!


Hope you don't mind if I show what I mean.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"]<span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"]Sorry for the late reply, I was out for sometime. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"]The pictures were all shot in RAW format with CP filter almost 90 degrees to the sunlight-this added some richness to the colors that PS can not reproduce. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"]Individual colors are then enhanced in CS3 on a per channel basis. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"]One more thing, I usually look for big pieces of objects with simple colors so that it will give you sharp but smooth color contrast at the end.
