'I colori del Mediterraneo' On Black
Manarola delle Cinque Terre, Italia
23rd Jan 2007: 1st Place in the Contest: Minimalist , in the Themed Contests Group!
This one is a bit wider, the colors here are a bit more accurate I think. I have a new camera and and I still have to figure out how to get good colors out of a 3 frame HDR. The X-Trans output is very different compared to my old Pentax K-5. With the Pentax I used to just select a profile from Photomatix and go with that. With the Fujifilm, the default profiles don't look natural and I have to choose a flat profile and pimp it in Lightroom. The blue's are weird. If you try to fix that, the green's turn pale. Maybe I should start shooting B&W. :)
It was noon, the light was very strong. Which idiot shoots this at noon? Yeah well, my time on planet Earth is limited right now but when I'm retired I'll go back and book a hotel for a week with 10 Pink Sheet hookers and shoot a time laps and get sunrise- and sunset shots and won't bitch about shitty colors in my HDR's. :)
