Jim-
I like those last two 100mm shots. I really like the way you are using that lens.

Robert S -- I like your subjects and your composition very much. That Zeiss 50MP is working great for you.

I see other people already mentioned the over-sharpening, and prominent compression artifacts -- you'll get the hang of it! What software and PP procedure are you using?

Beautiful images, Jim and Plasticmotif. How is it that you guys get such high color saturation in your JPGs? Do you just amp it up a lot in PP? My pics look great on in Lightroom but after exporting to jpg they looks flat.

Wonderful shots everyone.

Jim - from few pages back - I love the shot with people standing in line in a field. Great composition, and subtle narrative. Love the electric line shot. Great composition. Vintage car shot is great.

Abram G- Wonderful shots from Hawaii. Great composition of green and roof with 85. Great capture of a man fishing on a pier. Shot from Diamondhead ( assuming ) is a great one. It makes me want to go back to Hawaii.

Gary - Super shots from Cambodia. Great series. Comparing AbramG's temple from Hawaii (Japanese buddhism) to Cambodia, It is amazing how northen and southern buddhhism differ in their manifestation in buildings.

R.Young - I don't know what kind of car that is, but love the style. Great capture

OlAf- You captured a very nice moment. Very nice composition.

Robert S - I agree with the other people. Very nice photos, but a bit harsh on sharpening. Search through this forum. Try searching with Samuli or Denoir, or Makten and sharpening. Earlier ( about 300 + pages ago ) there was a great discussion on sharpening, but I could not find it. In short, you sharpen with small radius then resize in 2 - 3 steps with sharpening each time. That really helps. My suggestion is to find some other person's recipe and tweak to your own flavor.

Bob - So good to see your photos again. Beautiful composition. My favorite is #3. Looking forward to seeing more !

plasticmotif - Beautiful shot.

Thanks to all for your comments.

Smridevan, on some of my shots i do increase the saturation maybe to +1,2.But i think its a combination of adjusting exposure,shadows and contrast, and i do all of my processing in DPP from Canon.Might sound funny but you will get better results using Canon's software with their cameras.

I need to see if I change this 50MP with a CZ35 !!!!
What do you think about the idea ?

Lenses: 24LII / CZ 35 or 50MP / CZ100MP ?

Hi jim, nice panning shot. Nice to see the Zeiss used for action!

Rajan, that 100 looks like an amazing lens!

Akul, thanks, it's a Mark I escort which has been stuffed full of cash, and a cosworth engine!

Rajan, Jim, sterling shots! You guys are pushing the envelope!

Victor, the 35 f:1.4 is a fabulous lens. As you already have a 100MP, a 35 will be a better middle focal length than a 50. But if you love the way the 100 rendres, the 50, as a "baby 100" will definitely please you too.

That Orangerie shot is great! I wonder if it would support a little more contrast, or if that would kill the shadow detail?
