    Tim, nice stuff. I always love the colors and depth of field on your shots.

    Just think, if Reno was several weeks, it would be a year round job of photo processing!

      Strega is freakin' gorgeous! (Nice shot, too!) Can't wait to see a "bullet-proof" engine in her.

            Out-bloody-standing work, Tim!!
            Tiger dressed for battle is an awsome shot! (All he needs is a lance...)Race 86 is my favorite!

              Great stuff Tim. Are you increasing saturation in post processing, or is that out of the camera? I can't seem to get to grips with Picture Styles. The default color out of my old 10D was much more vibrant than I have been able to achieve with a 30D.
              No pixels were harmed, honest.

                I boost it in processing. Straight out of the camera RAW files are very, very dull.

                  So, the next question is which RAW converter are you using?

                  I love how you held the highlight detail in the shot of Tiger. One big drawback of shooting jpeg is the slightest over exposure and the highlights are gone. Your post processing work is making me want to try shooting some RAWs. No doubt time wise I'll regret that.

                    Re: Reno - Day Six

                    I'm using ACR (Adobe Camera RAW) in PSCS2. The highlights in Tigers uniform started to blow out, but I pulled it back a little before I converted it. I also convert the Tiff to ProphotoRGB, it has more room on each end before you blow out highlights or lose shadows.

                    I really have not read any books on ACR. I learned 99% of what I'm doing from the famous bird photographer Aurther Morris. I bought his Digital Basics pdf file. It boils it down to simple stuff. He uses ACR and BreezeBrowser for conversions. www.birdsasart.com And not I'm not getting paid by him for this.

                        When I look at the state of my Reno images I don't know where to start I'll dive back into it pretty soon

                          What Dasher Said. I love your sense of composition and how you make the most out of being wher you're at. You deserve a spot out on the pylons. Check your pm's.

                              Great work Tim.It's cool that we get new pics in December.

                              Now if we could only here Tigers thoughts as he straps on Strega.
