Hello guys!
I spent a nice weekend in Tuscany, to be more accurate I was here:
http://tinyurl.com/425c65c
I went there to help my GF with her degree thesis, she had to visit an abandoned abbey lost in the woods.
Long story short, I had a chance to take a lot of pictures of those places and here's the best I got.
As usual, constructive criticism is highly appreciated B)


On the way to Alberese we passed by Pisa, and here's the well known tower.
Too bad it was a cloudy day with a crappy light.




Sunset above the crops, simple and clichè but I love the colors here.




Let's lower the perspective and watch it among the crops:




The deep dark of the night.
I know this picture doesn't seem to say much, but I want to thank Eek for his suggestions about star pictures.
I learnt a lot and I'm gonna use that knowledge in my next timelapse!




Farmhouse and sunset.
I love this one because it really needed almost no edit at all.
Natural colors FTW.




Hay bale.
Clichè? Who cares, this is my new desktop background:




OK to end this topic, here are a couple of pictures taken by my girl.
I'm simply amazed by what a noob photographer can do.
This first one has no edit AT ALL. I love it, I love the colors, the light and that little red flower.




Last but not least, the ugly guy who took the other pictures :lol:

Liking the pictures!! and yah got to hate those unfortunate moments where you don't get the weather or lighting you want the one time you come across something remarkable. But there will be other moments and better ones at that. I like 3-5 the best, especially 4-5. do you have a picture of the crops where you put them as the focal? i don't know but having the sky focused is just bugging me a little. Absolutely loving your colours though.

Eek has an awesome idea and I am loving the sky photo especially of the light pollution coming from the lower left corner.

and one suggestion for #5 would to move the composition to the right more. other than that mate looks good aha, im sure onepagememory will have some more constructive words for you aha.

Edit: Oh lord just switched monitors and they look even better and more vibrant then before. on my laptop they looked a little de-saturated.

#3 - I wish the focus was on the crop itself and not the sky! Cool idea, but it kind of boggles with my eyes a bit. I really like the one above that photo though. Probably your best shot of all of these. :)

I think that it all in-focus, it looks blurry because there was a lot of wind. 1/160 was not enough to stop them from shaking.
