MJRinCA is on a distinguished road
Mathjak107, Gorgeous photos, may I ask a couple of questions?

Do you use a digital or film camera (then convert them to digital). If you don't mind my asking, what brand of camera is it?

Also, do you do something to enhance the vivid colors? They're awesome!

Thanks!

we use digital.... nikon d80 and nikon d300.... we shoot raw files....

we convert the raw files to tiffs in nikon capture nx2 software..

we then use photomatix hdr sofware and feed in one well exposed picture....

then i use light inversions to get the look i want.... i make dark things light and light things dark in a certain fashion...

i then convert to jpeg and bring back into nikon capture nx2 to add levels and curves adjustments and sharpening...

no photoshop at all

Tramps and hoboes are commonly lumped together, but in their own sight they are sharply differentiated. A hobo or bo is simply a migratory laborer; he may take some longish holidays, but soon or late he returns to work. A tramp never works if it can be avoided; he simply travels. Lower than either is the bum, who neither works nor travels, save when impelled to motion by the police.
