Please look away now ( if you hate HDR )
It looks like they've applied grass paint to it.
For that reason the last is my favourite.
Cheers, Kris.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

I like them - except for the virulent green grass .

I toned the grass down loads as well, you should have seen it before hand
Funnily enough the HDR isn't so extreme that it bothers me particularly but the converging verticals do. I can see with some of them you have deliberately gone for extreme convergence, but some could have been shot straight? Couldn't they? Or am I just being an old fusspot...?
You are just being an old fusspot
Yes they could have been shot straight but I had an "artistic" moment

That's his excuse and he's sticking to it .

You should do more HDR as you seem to have a very keen artistic inclination to bring the beauty out of structures like these .
Is that the new K10 you are trying?

Ooh, can I be an old fusspot too?
The CVs bug me too. I can get over the excessive HDR once I tune into the look, and the green (hey, I was a Konica film fan years ago!!)...
But I'm with Orinoco on the verticals.
