Still enjoying the new lens ...Canon 10-22
Downtown (again)

Was stopped by the Cincy police and a GSA Agent
They were afraid I was taking photos of the Federal Building
This is a first for me no big deal really but had to show them all of my photos
Which took a little while ..If I was in a hurry to be somewhere this could be bad :dunno
They were finally satisfied that I was just taking photos and let me go on my way.


Here's some of what I took last night

Fred,
These are awesome.
That first one blows me away.
Sorry to hear about your hassle.
Another reason for me not going into the city:D

I love the water pics:thumb Maybe it's just me but what in the world is that brown thing sticking down from righthand side of the sky in the 2nd pic:dunno :huh It almost looks like the pic started over again only flipped backwards. Tried refreshing several times and it's still there:confused

Great shots, my friend! I really love the natural and vibrant colors you are getting in these shots, care to share your workflow?

What Chui said. I'd love to hear how you process those pics.

You post a lot of evening/night shots that are just great. Be sure not to
show the feds your airport stuff :D

- ChuiThank you Daniel
My work flow is really not that much but here goes.

I shoot in RAW
I use ps cs for RAW converter
I adjust white balance in RAW converter I leave everything else alone
I try to expose the shot properly :dunno
In ps I do levels then curves
Then selective colors to bump up the colors
Then I sharpen if I needed ... for these I used high pass
I make a duplicate layer
Then filter-other-high pass radius was 6 pixels for these shots
Then I blend using one of the following
overlay,soft light,hard light,vivid light,linear light,pin light to what ever look I am shooting for
Then flatting and thats it
Most of this I picked up from here on Dgrin
Before I started hanging out here my workflow sucked :confused
It's still not the best but still learning :D

Thanks again

IanI have a lot of airport shots but with 911 I not sure if I should post them
Everything it so strict here now it's hard to tell if it's ok or not ?:huh
In my job I take care of the airfield I rarely get inside.
Most of my airport shots are out doors so maybe I should post some of these ?:dunno

Thanks

I can't remember the airline but I think it was you that posted the
shot of FedEX freighter taking off at sunrise/sunset. What a great
shot it was.

I love night/evening photography and your pictures are excellent! What a wonderful fountain. The images are so clean. I can't wait to get into a dSLR.

I really like the way the water effect looks on these pictures. It really works with the form of the statue. I like the first image the best! :clap
