Its probably your monitor, but a month ago or so you were WAY over sharpening. Now they're starting to soften up a bit, but still can be a bit harsh. You're honestly better off leaning towards less sharpening rather than going really crazy with it.
Saturation is usually OK, that last one is a little close to the edge. I usually never touch saturation off the camera, or sometimes I push it down a bit. Depends on the camera, and what you're shooting. I try to configure my camera to deliver as close to neutral as possible.
Hope you dont mind, this was just using some HDR toning in PS5, would look alot better if done with the original photo.Quote:

I dont mind at all man, I tried Photomatix (spelling?) or something of the sort but after playing with the demo I didnt think it was worth $100 bucks and I havent bothered since then.
I can get a effect kind of like that was Photoscape by hitting a "bloom" button half a dozen times but I always thought they looked bad, I may put the same image up tomorrow with a few shots of "bloom" and see what you guys think.
I guess I need to stop being a cheap arse and save up for Photoshop and learn how to use it.
Nice photo, but try some CA correction. Im bit suprised that this lens has that much of CA.Quote:

Photomatix is hard to master, though cant say if its worth 100 USD or not, it has certain uses, but takes long time to find for what its good.
@Tarowah, I like the saturation of the first pic, and the sharpness of the second. First pic to sharp.
Thanks for the input everyone, I am going to try and get better at editing, I dont speand the amount of time with them as I should.
man what did you do with your Nikon ?Quote:

The black border is too strong needs to be toned down.

Nice Tarawah, are these old historical structures? or just abandon old homes? I would love to look through these.
The set I am showing now are on a customers farm, the last one is the first home that was built on the farm and it is pretty well falling apart, I will put a few more of this one up in the next few days. The ones with the signs on them are newer and are used as storage for their collections of signs and whatnot.

Only problem with the post 2002 models was that they fixed a few of the ghetto mods like the IAT sensor mod of just using. 99 cent resistor to trick the motor into thinking its sucking cold air so it ups the timing and dumps more fuel.
There is an absolute difference with it and without it. But i have heard the long term side effects are not good. So only use it whenneeded then go back to the stock sensor.
There are a couple of throttle based mods that use this at full throttle but i cant find anyone who has one for sale.

This shot and the other above were taken through the window of the long closed down Nunnally's Photography Studio in Reidsville North Carolina, I have a couple of shots that I want to share, not sure why I like them so much but I do.

Can't decide if bokeh is distracting or not.
@kwscore, Looks like you're on the correct side of the tracks.
@yup, Beautiful, love the b/w, keep'em coming.
@Tarowah, I love those shots, great composition! Thats a new style for you.
@Cpl Ledanek, I'm not sure what that is, but I would eat it.
@Kain, Nice shot, young rose leaves make good subjects.

This past Friday night I volunteered to shoot photos at a special needs prom (for handicapped kids), I shot as a paparazzi photographer and I got a little over 600 images of the kids getting out of the limo, it was about as heart warming a night that I can remember.
Reflection of the red carpet where the kids walked into the building.

I really like your latest captures, Weevil, but to me they seem just a tad overcooked (saturated).
Anemic, nice photos. But would be better with graduated grey filters. On your first pic sky seems to bu burned (so plain). On the second the stone arch (especially left side) lost its details.
I'm about to get Marumi ND 77mm for my Sigma 10-20. I got tired of ruined landscape photos because of the bright sky.

Nice shot Kain, are you photoshopping? They are coming in so razer sharp they've cut through my screen lol
Yes, I sharpen and adjust colors in PS.
Cool, I spend ages adjusting things in Lightroom but I don't notice that much of a difference, maybe when my new glasses come through........:rofl:Quote:
