I went to Cox arboretum after work, and processed these images. PP in LR2 and CS2. Images are sharpened in PP.

Nice.
#2 and the last 2 are brilliant.
Nice sceneries and colour.
Others are a little dark but pleasant scenes as well.
Thanks for sharing.

I really like #5 and it's composition.

Thank you. The last one looks better with a slightly smaller view, which I tried by inserting in the 'hide' format', but it reversed it. So, now, if you click on that image it takes you to a smaller res., which looks better. This is my favorite.

Thank you. Wonder whether I should do anything with the walk way to make it better. I can lighten or darken it. I think I need to work on that part....any suggestion is appreciated.

Thank you. It works well at F8 and F11 for landscapes, so just trying that out for now (If the light allows that). I am still relatively new to the lens.

Thanks....it is most definitely growing on me. I am starting to like it very much...but, I am not done with it putting it through the paces yet. This is my second round of 'testing'. I will be going to the same spot with the DA21 this weekend, and will pst those images later.

If the walkway is gravel maybe there is someway you could enhance it to show some more detail? Perhaps not though because it's too far away in the frame.

#2 does it for me. The last one comes in a close 2nd

I like the others too

Really nice set... I love the last image. I had planned to get over that way sometime over the past 2 weeks, but never made it there. I imagine that after the rain today, much of the fall color will have, in fact.... fallen.

Again... nice shootin'!

I don't know, the leaves may still be there. I might hit yellow springs or Englewood this sunday as the weather is supposed to be nice. Cox is 5 minutes from my place.

Ah the Graduated Neutral Density filter...the original HDR device

Nice work.
