Nice pics! I really like the color pics. The B/W takes something away from the wonderful colors there...

Matthew Roberts · 03-16-2008, 07:47 PM

Thanks Maxwell. I was sorta experimenting with the B&W, as those pics looked a little better to me that way. I'll put up color versions of them later.

Timbuctoo · 03-16-2008, 09:26 PM

Probably just one thing. I'd give them a little + exposure in Photoshop because they're a little dark on my screen. Nice pictures.

Oh, really Tim???

Never showed up too dark on my PC... :ugh:if that's only you have to say though, thanks!

Love the blue, blue skies, Matt!
Did you use a polarizer?
Thanks!

Same here but then again I have not gotten around to getting anything to calibrate my monitor yet. I really like the pics though

Sorry, again, Tran; wonder who's monitor is at fault?

Thanks. It was amazing.

Yep, Ted, I used a CP filter. They were already pretty blue, and it made them even more blue.

Great shots Mathew #2 is my favorite. I love looking at ruins - I agree these shots look better in color.

Matthew Roberts · 03-18-2008, 08:24 PM

Thanks to you, too Dave; ruins are most definitely cool, aren't they? There were more, but they weren't as cool as the mission church there.

Has anyone watched the slideshow or clicked on the link to the gallery?
