Amazing photos! 4th is my favorite. Keep'em coming.

have ya thought bout doin any aerial shoots???

 

[wesalbert]

I have. I can do pole (32ft), from a multi-rotor, and airplane.

Can't get shots like that from anything moving. All of them are HDR.

Messing around with Photomatix pro. lmk what you think.

(This photo was taken with out a tripod an and very dirty truck. I know its not the best way to get the best picture quality just wanted to
play around with the HDR software.)

Nice pics, what were your setting on the first photo?

Yea I kinda figured it looked more like a color sketch more than a picture. lol. I used tone mapping process/contrast optimizer . But when I saved the image it came out darker after I saved it. Something im doing wrong?

Pulled back on the strength and tone compression.

Before you save you should have some options to bring it back up.

I have the same Nikon, although I was shooting in jpeg. I have never shot I raw before. I plan on getting lightroom soon, awesome vid.

RAW is the way to go. You can recover so much more in a photo. The video is why I started shooting RAW. So far good results. You can set the camera up to shoot RAW and jpg.
