Interesting. I don't know much about Photoshop or how Vulcans produced the photo's. I know I liked them but they seem to me heavily prossesed. Now that is probably what gives them a kick, at least to me. I asked my wife over & said nothing about Vulcans pictures, I said what do you think about them? She said she liked them but didn't like the Rocks (foreground) & wasn't keen on the unnatural feel to the pictures. So it seems Horses for Courses. I don't know if Vulcan would do it but it would be interesting to see the Images before processing, that would give me & I'm sure others an Idea of what can be done.
As for my Images, I decided to go out at the last minute with my camera last night & was surprised to see there was a good Sunset. I didn't take my Tripod
& there was just nothing to put the camera on to allow for a longer shot so it was all hand held or nothing. I always like Silhouettes so to me they were how I personally like them, but I would have taken longer shots it I had anywhere safe to stand the camera on. Anyhow as you see from these two new Images I did take some with foreground in but preferred the first ones I posted before.
Anyhow thanks for the advice, as it's always welcome
