Gilze-Rijen @ the Golden Hour; 08-03-2011

Post by Redskin301 »

Hi All,

Today I went to Gilze-Rijen during the Golden Hour. I was lucky, because there were three
Apaches ready for departure. Let the pictures speak for themselves :)

Because I was standing at the centerline of runway 28. Officially it's not allowed to stand there.

Very cool Alex, the last one really stands out! The see-through rocketpods make it look as if they just unloaded..

Nice shots for sure, but may I be so blunt to ask you how much saturation you used to increase the orange colors? Some of them look a bit overdone in my humble opinion. I would have tried to decrease the saturation of the tarmac in the first shot, and the tree line in the second shot (both of which are easily done in LR -which I'm sure you used- with the Adjustment Brush). Just my two cents of constructive criticism..

@Grayburn,

Nope, was less between 1/100sec and 1/125sec

@DJ,

I increased the orange with an amount of 20 to 25%, not too much if you ask me. I aslo gave the orange a twist of Luminance of -20 to 25%. This causes the bright orange in the pics. The color temperature in the photos is between 6500 and 7000 Kelvin. My camera was already adjusted for this light conditions before I took the shots; it was a choice before I took these pics. I hope this answers you're question!

@The rest,

Many thanks for the positive comments :)
Regards Alex van Noye,

Very, very, very nice shots Alex. Thinking outside the box does pay off every now and then. You cashed it well.

Cheers,
