I just love the colors you get, Joshua. This whole Barcelona series has been phenomenal.
If you don't mind me asking, how do you process these? You shoot raw? You using LR or more elaborate PS work?
Thanks, Nadim.
I only shoot RAW and yes, I process the files in Lightroom. If there is a need to, which is approximately 50%, I use Photoshop with Nik Software plug-ins; Color Efex Pro is my most used plug-in. I experimented and played with recipes and I do have and use about 10 of them. The term, recipe{s), is used by Nik, which is actually a series of filters that will be processed in sequence in Color Efex Pro automatically. A few years back, you could download their recipes and you can modify them to your needs/preference. I am not sure right now. But the recipes are fairly easy to create. I can give you some hints on how to if we get together.

I've been using Nik as well for a couple of years now. I do love some of the effects and filters they provide. A very different approach to things than PS/LR.
I was just curious because I seem to notice time and again that your pics have a certain colorful pop to them that appeals to me. Everyone has a different processing style, and it usually comes across in the pics they post. I like a lot of different styles (for instance, I do love the somewhat "magical light" look that Phillip Reeve gets in his nature shots.
I was mostly curious as to whether you were achieving those results via post processing, or whether there was something else to it
Thanks for the reply.

Thanks, Peire! The inside of the church is actually pretty bright after the completion of the stained glass windows installation about a year ago. And the stained glass windows, being different than in typical churches, provide ample lighting, in addition to being colorful

JBush- 'NO darks. NO flats. NO bias'.
Well most real astrophotographers running a tracking mount and using guiding via Backyard EOS or PHD Guiding shoot not only 'lights' (the actual image) but various other 'images' like darks (when you put the lens cap on).
For definitions of flats, biases, etc-
http://deepskystacker.free.fr/english/faq.htm
DeepSkyStacker is the software I used to stack my 'subs'. Subs are what the astro people call the images.
After DSS I go into CC for fine tuning
Hope that helps.

Lee's Ferry, Arizona -- A location on the Colorado River between Glen Canyon and Grand Canyon.

More images from the concept of Hollywood style glamor of yesteryear.
The first image is, well, interesting. We didn't have any cigarette holder in the studio (although we could have rolled a piece of white paper to make it look like cigarette). So, a cigar is actually out of place but it would have to do as a prop. It is more the styling and pose that counts in this respect. Taken from a higher position. I used a mundane Canon EF 100mm f/2 for that shot in combo MB IV and Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 Mark II for the other two.
The AF was set on Lock-On AF mode in continuous and somehow the A7r II enables a "face recognition" mode using that combo, making it easy to do. I didn't know that before hand. Since I used f/5.6 as the shooting aperture, I am not sure how accurate the AF is on the eye at wide open. At that aperture, all eyes seem to be critically sharp since the AF was locked on to the face.

And very very sharp looking! Also with the WATE?

AF looks perfect on all of the shots.
And as I mentioned before on your previous post from this series: The lighting is VERY well executed on this model and her skin.
Really nice work, Joshua!
