Thanks for the tips Yannis - I've tried this before but ended up with ugly seams where the sky meets the land. How do you ensure the transition is seamless?

Kelly,
My effort was indeed to try to depict the colours and the atmosphere as it really was. After soooooo many years shotting in .jpg (as a typical newbie), I took the plunge last year and now I shoot EXCLUSIVELY in RAW.
This liberates you later on to bring the colours to their reality.
Thanks for your warm comments!

Yannis

reddevil,
Indeed it's not always easy!... You have to "play" with various brushes and opacities. It's easier when you have straight horizons and not buildings etc.
If you find it too complicated, you can try the HDR action of Photoshop (you need 3 or 4 exposures I think) or other software such as Photomatix Pro etc.

great photos. you have a really good eye for photography. very nice colours. did you try using a polariser filter in any of your shots? you could also try to pp some of the haze out of a couple of the shots but overall fantastic work.

Alan,
Thanks a lot for your kind comments! In most of the shots, especially the morning ones when light is harsh, I used a polariser to cut back reflections and to saturate colours. Indeed, I could use a bit more of pp but generaly I am not a very good user of PS (I know just the basics), and also I prefer doing minimum editing after the RAW conversion.

Yannis
