I think the subtle approach is the way forward and it will become more refined. Having said that there are subjects that suit the OTT aspects. Each to their own ;o)<BR/><BR/>JJ, glad you liked the tutorials, I've found them very helpful, I seem to have found my own particular style(s) whilst incorporating what I've learnt along the way. Dave has a technical understanding that I've not seen anywhere else.<BR/><BR/>Darrius, thanks, really enjoying your stuff at the moment too.<BR/><BR/>Evengy, thanks for stopping by. Yes this one and the post after it "Sort of Linked To" are HDR's everything else is straight shots with a little photoshop help of course.CraigMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15498413743743819463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4885833130817852552.post-41244471544205290052009-01-27T06:10:00.000-08:002009-01-27T06:10:00.000-08:00Craig, the images here are wonderful!

It doesn't feel real or timeless. However when fits with the story it can work. I like what you did. It is subtle enough that the contrast is not overdone. It seems like it could be a real scene...
