Always love looking at your work, another incredible shot.
At the risk of lowering the tone (again), a couple from Sywell Great Wawr Airshow at the weekend.

I'm considering purchasing a EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM lens so hired from Lensesforhire.co.uk and ordered a ball mount for my monopod which failed to arrive in time so these are all hand-held. I'm rather pleased, considering!

Don't think i'll ever be up to the standard of many on this thread but i'm quite pleased with this one... Took with a SAMYANG 14mm and cropped a bit vertically.

Taste thing really but personally I'd bring a bit more out of the shadows and do a touch more with the colours and sky - it's a nice sharp image but the colouring is a bit dark and flat for me.
Viewing it bigger is well worthwhile though and I think you've got a decent image there, just needs some fettling.

I agree with tenohfive. There's worthwhile fettling potential in there I think. (At least as viewed on my screen there is).
I think I would start with lifting the darks a tad and reducing the lights over all. Then lift the middle tones and see what that gives you.
I suspect that the middles need a little stretching up and down to deliver a bit more colour separation mostly in the greens to add details.
Something like that.
BTW your EXIF data suggests that one was shot with the 24-105 rather than the Samyang. Both goos lenses. I suspect 14mm would have been a bit wide to get much of the Dam line visible at that distance.

Ahhaa
Right behind where I shot that there is a 12 bed lodge ready for me to hire out and run workshops from. I am so stoked about the possibilities of this area for that!
Please post any details about this on here. It could work quite nicely for my next holiday plans!!Right behind where I shot that there is a 12 bed lodge ready for me to hire out and run workshops from. I am so stoked about the possibilities of this area for that!
