Calm after the storm
Posted By: jonny1986, 05-27-2009, 03:35 PM

Big storm passed tonight and leave a beautiful fresh air and an incredible light. All taken with da*16-50 2,8. Processed only in lighroom with minimal change.

finally my da* is optically very good and fast and accurate af. It has some problem sometimes, as shown by test, but in real photography i find this lens superb for color contrast and sharpness. It could be better at 16 for distortion but luckily it can easily fixed with new camera or using dxo raw converter with the lens module.

hope you enjoy

Great series! Looks like everything came together for you that day and you took advantage of it. Location, lighting, scenery! I especially like the ones with the grey cloud background and the brightly lit forgrounds, great contrast and colors.

Great series! A lesson for the rest of us, I can imagine someone else walking around there and coming up with nothing more than some decently composed but not very interesting snapshots.

but these are all great, great work on the sky. love the first image, get a feeling of depth there and the sky is so dramatic.

The PP work is very nice. My least favorite is the last one where the water seems to be PPed too much and starting to look a bit strange.

thanks a lo for the generous comment.

Beautiful series of photos capturing the magic light! Very clever compositions as well. You are lucky one to live by the sea. These boring lakes are killing me here :/ Need to get out of this country but have not yet gathered enough $$ for my photo trip around the world.
