Ecuadorian Landscapes

[thebeginning]

Just a few from a recent trip to Ecuador. I'm not really much of a landscape guy (I live in south Texas, heh), but I really enjoyed making these.

The editing might not fit everyone here's tastes, but I'm mostly fine with that


anyway, here goes:

Thanks for looking everyone!

I like em, nice work.

The processing does add interest to them, even if i am curious as to what the originals look like

Really like 3 and 5!, very curious to see the original of the last, even thought the edit is very nice as well.

Great work!!

Numbers 5 and 6 are really nice. I too wonder what the originals look like.

 

[Toxic Toast]

wonderful, awesome photos, i love 3, 5, and 6!

I like the last one the best. I could see that printed up on canvas hanging on the wall.

 

[Roger]

excellent landscape subjects, well composed and interesting editing....looks like a marriage between photography and painting, well done.

Thanks for the comments everyone!

I might be able to post up the originals later, we'll see.




And Danny, I actually am printing a few of these on canvas for a project/fundraiser of sorts, so it's good you said that

Wow. These are amazing. I really like the first one a lot. How did you get these effects? Is there a program you used that does it for you or did you do it yourself?

thanks, I'm glad someone liked the first one


They're simply a few layers in photoshop tweaked around a bit...the scratches and age marks are either from pictures I've taken, pictures i've found (from photographers or artists giving them out), or brushes I've purchased.

oh I love them!! love #1 and the ones with the scratches, love them all.

I love the last one. Was the volcano actually spewing or is that PP work?

I like. 1 & 2 especially

I am really captured by the 5th photo. The light filtering through into the background is excellent but more importantly also lighting up the farm house in the foreground with the shadow between them really adding depth to the image. Great composition and i like to think you waited for just the right moment to capture it.
