Some of the best I've seen on NEX. I especially liked the sunburst , last of first set. Are these handheld or on tripod?
Having fun picking which is 5N and which 7 without looking...and surprising myself that I'm mostly right! The 7 appears to have greater latitude (less contrasty) and a slightly "finer grain" look. Both well acceptable though.
Phillip - thanks for these lovely images. I was in that area on a student motorbiking holiday way back in about 1977. I probably still have slides from then.

I think Flickr may just be adding more sharpening, I've had that problem before.
Flickr might indeed be the culprit, but I can't understand that some people like the sharpening halos... Maybe they're on small screens and don't notice it? They really stand out on my 24" screen.
Anyway, great additions again, Phillip. "Climbing Cadair Idris" is my favourite set.
AhamB:
Phillip's photos have a certain zing that I really like.
To tell you the truth, I don't know what you mean by halos. I certainly can pick them out on my own oversharpened photos at 100% but I can't see them in Phillip's reduced size photos. Perhaps you can point them out to me on one of these examples. I can see that they are hyper sharp, and I can see aliasing, but I don't see halos.
I guess I've been permanently desensitized to visual stimulus by too much bad HDR.
Sandy.
thanks @ all, this has been quite motivational
@bluetsunami: yes, i'm using LR4 and resize in PS

I think Phillip's compositions are excellent but he does ride that border between sharp and crunchy. I see it most easily in the foliage.
thats how i see it myself, on some of them i overdid it.
Phillip, I thought I had commented on these earlier, but I didn't. Outstanding set. Love the light on the first few. The presence on the G45 shots is hard to beat. Your processing is boss as always. Well done!
