Red Rock, Nevada

[maxima302]

Hi Everyone! This is my first post here on DGrin. Anyways, here are a few shots from my recent trip to Las Vegas to visit family for thanksgiving. Red Rock is a great way to escape the city.

All images were taken with my Canon 10D and either an 18-55 EF-S (Modified to fit the 10D) or 70-200 F/4 L

I used to live in Nevada...those make me feel a little homesick. Nice pictures. :):

Thanks! I was looking through Lüzern's Archive at a bunch of the advertising photographers work, and a lot of this processing reflects that.

Excellent series. Very nice! :clap :clap

A nit but you have a few of these images showing evidence of vignetting. I think it works OK for the first one but it doesn't really help #6 (which I really like).

I really like the last one. Being a B&W kinda guy I wonder what the conversions would look like? Good job!

ahh. so calming to look at. my fav is the first one Its got such punchy hues to it.and I think its your most interesting comp. I love it.

Thanks for the comments!

erich6- Thanks :D I did a bunch of vignetting on all of these intentionally. I see where you are coming from on #6. Its by far the most traditional of the set, and could do without the edgy vignetting. Thanks again.

Carbon Based- Honestly, I just simply haven't had time to do much work on these. I can't wait to experiment with black and white though :D

jen_asmirian- Thanks, the first is my personal favorite as well. :wink
