woohoo! thats more like it!. I love that one. Thanks

How are you getting so much colour in the pics?. Mine look really bland when I take them.

On Camera:

White Balance set a little on the warm side, roughly A2/3. Saturation boosted for that "bold" colour look.

After shot (photoshop or lightroom)

Tweak the colours a bit to how I like them, little washed out for silvers, nice and bold for blues etc. I consider it the same as "developing" with a film SLR.

 

[WwWMike]

Oh! And Glad you like it

 

[Joe R26]

Ahhh, I've just been playing around with a photo in lightroom, managed to get my blue, much more blue! if that makes sense lol.

I'll have to experiment on the camera, Thanks for the tips.

Can you send me the full resolution pic of that last one you did?. I'd like it as my wallpaper

 

[WwWMike]
