Just a few shots I took while travelling around my own country last summer. There are a pile more if you have an affection for 'green' !

I used a Sony F717 for all shots. Some photoshop work on the first shot :)

Some really nice photos there. You have a good eye for composition. Whatever you tweaked or did in PS on the first one worked ;) Great colors.

Bit of the lens flare on the third but nothing major. :)

Welcome to the board!

Thanks for your comments. Yeah didn't have time yet to rid the pic of lensflare yet.

Here is the original photo of the first one and also the layers I worked on to achieve the final result. I can write a quick method tutorial over the weekend if anyone is interested in the process.

wow more great shots. I'm lovin the first one of theses new ones. Nice composition and some great colours throughout all of them. Nice work.

Some more fantastic shots. :) They are all very nice, but I am particularily fond of #s 2,3,5. These would make some good studies for painting ;)

Keep em coming!
