1500 keepers? That's more keepers than I have from my whole 2 years of DSLR photography(!!)

These look great. Love the colours!! I remember a different set of outback photos you posted ages ago and I was amazed by the colours then too...

Do you do anything special in Post Processing or are these colours as they were captured?

Well done.

Hi Paul & thanks
Just resize- Two lots of sharping and a bit of Lab Colour or Velvia Vision to bring out the colours

Nice shots Kevin, great essay.
Love the colours of the sky and dirt, really complimentary. Looks like the polarisor got a great workout.

Great images, Kevin.

I've edited each of your initial posts on this topic, however, because there's just too many images in each thread for people to properly appreciate.

They're all great, but the first one has a real 3D look about it 8)

Did the skies really look like that or has the PP brought out the depth and colour ?

Kevin

I almost missed these. A great series of photos from your travels with excellent use of the fisheye lens. I think the high sat treatment works well with these too. Thanks for sharing these. One day I may even get off my arse and pay some of this part of our great country a visit.
