Gosh, it looks like oil spills!

I keep wondering, how it is you find so much color to shoot!

I know you're probably not expecting an answer, but I'm gonna give you one anyway
How do I find so much color? One word: exposure. When I look at "amateur" sky shots, I notice that the single most common mistake is over-exposing the sky. Just focus the shot on the sky, and the details and colors in the clouds won't be washed out

Oh! : D

Wow, I like that. I have an amateur digital camera, I hope I can make those settings. Do your shots look like the scenery, or do your camera settings bring out the color? I'm just shocked by the beauty ^^'

My settings allow me to bring out the true colors (I find that most cameras fail in capturing the real colors of a scene, the vivid parts can be lost).

Such amazing colors
I love the reflections the puddles give off, it breaks up the plain gray of the ground and makes it much more interesting :]

Amazingly vibrant, and I love the rays.
Interesting comparison between the brilliance of the sunset and how ordinary someone would find tennis court would be

Ooh nice observation Funny how few people actually notice the beauty in things like this. You've just gotta have the right perspective. From a different angle, it was just an ordinary court.

I don't know why but I like this one more than the wider version.
very strange...

Really? It's a tie for me. Originally, I liked the wide version... but the vertical version is kinda growing on me

I've learned that great shots are often taken when you just happen to have brought the cam along.
