EPIC!

Weekly winners are being posted to the front page now. Well done to the winners. Just a reminder this week is the final round of the contest.

This thread is amazing.
The photo entries have accelerated and improved so much.
This last set of pics are very inspiring.

Cool pics Alper.
What sort of photoshop work do you do to get those sorts of effects?

thanks for the feedback!
i use photomatix pro to create an high dynamic range picture (HDR), afterwards i do some saturation and color adjustments in photoshop.

Wicked job, things have definetly progressed as the threads popularity has grown.  Cant wait to see more photos keep it up everyone!

Alper… YOU"RE ON FIRE man!!!!!! These pics are f-ing amazing :D

Ive been meaning to try some HDR shots.
I thought you had to keep the camera still on a tripod though and didnt think you could do it with a moving shot. (ie. snowboarder on a rail)

Dunno myself, I appreciate the artisitc merit of those pics but I prefer the more realistic pics, basicaly as close to what it looks like being there in real life.  The colours, shadows and tone are a bit off for my tastes.

i just make 2 more pics with photoshop, changed the exposure of the original pic to get 1 under-exposed and 1 overexposed.
you still get better results with a tripod.
