your architectural photography is wonderful! I am interested in photography myself. I take pictures of really anything that looks interesting. My friends have lovingly dubbed me the "photo-fanatic."

I do have a question though... How do you get the colors to be so brilliantly bright and intense? Is it a camera setting? Or in the way you develop the film?

Wonderful job! God's given you a great gift! Keep up the amazing work!

Hi there! Thank you sooo much for your support and your kind words!
To answer to your question now, it depends; sometimes, I might overlay 2 pics. Sometimes I might use a polarizing filter, well known for what it does to contrast & saturation. Sometimes, I might play with contrast in CS3.
I hope I answered the question?
I would love to see YOUR photography, since you only present digital art here...

You are very welcome. I meant every word! And yes, you answered my question. I have never gotten around to using the polarizing filter with my camera, now I just might give it a try...

I am planning on uploading some of my photography soon, I just have to choose which ones I want the world to see. The only time I'm ever a perfectionist is when it involves my own art work, so that does make choosing my best photos a bit of a challenge...

I use my digital camera mostly. I take it everywhere. It never fails, every time I don't take it with me, I see something I want to take a picture of! Funny how that works. My photographs aren't near as good as yours, since you get to go to Greece and other places of that sort, and I'm stuck in one state, but I enjoy it.

lol! your state might be the size of Greece!
Try posting some pics anyway, and we, fellow artists might help you with all the choosing...
It is good that you take pics of everything. Mind you, when your pictures advance, they will be far less since you will be more picky about the subject!

Thanks! I'm not sure that there are no facades over there like ours, but I guess they are quite common over here...
