My second batch of pics from the D70 Stockton Beach weekend. This batch are of the huts in the midst of the dunes and are called Tin City by the locals. They are still lived in & were first built in the 1930's. A few more pics can be found here

If they look familiar, it may be because the were used in the movie Mad Max.

Gee.

Were these shots THAT bad - no comments! Last time I ever play with the colour saturation

yep........ just a tad over saturated ........ you need to add some red or magenta and not the stuff that comes in bottles

cheers

Thanks BP, I'll go have another attempt at PP and dial down the sat, then I'll repost

Stubbsy, like them all. Might have framed the first a bit wider to show the desolate surrounds but like them and the crisp blue skies. First is my pick.

Nuts the clouds are wild and the sand very bright
does the CPL filter make the sand look much brighter in the second shot?

I like the 2nd the most and the colour of the hut in the first

12-24DX lens used?

nicely composed too!

HI

1st one is my favourite. Like the colours.

Arthur

Stubbsy,
I still like the first shot for the colours, the colour on the french pub is natural and I thought the colour of the hut was as well or at least close, but that is irrelevant.
Nice shots,
Cheers,

Hi Peter,

I like 1st and 3rd. I might rcompose 3rd a bit myself if i'd shot this scene to place riders to the bottom left crossing of thirds and get more houses from the right.

Are you still using SRGB? that might be a bit of problem with saturation, I recon

Stubbsy, these pics bring back memories, spent many of my childhood holidays on the dairyfarm at Williamtown, playing tennis at Stockton, Medowie, swimming at the RAAF base and Lemon tree passage, visiting rels at the Terrace...

Nice colour, these shots tell a story

OK

I've redone the PP on the two high sat versions of these. Is this better:





And added a third one for good measure:

very good stubbsy, like them lots.

You seem to enjoy cool tones in your pics, while I enjoy warm tones. Each to their own.

Cheers.

Never really thought about it Heath, but you're right - I''m a sucker for blues. Guess that's why I liked the cloud shots the most.

Nice Stubbsy,

Love he blue on the shed.
