Were Springtime and Velvia made for each other, or what?
If anyone has any springtime shots that just jump out with the Velvia setting, put 'em up here. These are nothing particular as photographs, but I just love the colors. Velivia isn't particularly realistic and in some situations doesn't work well at all, but on these crystal clear days with all sorts of colors jumping out, I love it. None of these had more than extremely minor touch ups in Lightroom (usually just raising the shadows a touch) and borders added in Color Efex Pro... First three from NYC last weekend and the rest from my town earlier today...
Wonderful colors! I went for a walk last weekend with my X-E1 and also chose the velvia film setting, like you mentioned great colors for a beautiful spring day.
Hi Ray. Great post ......This is a straight out of camera 5 shot vertical stitch of some very venerable Spanish Chestnuts in a local nature park. Sun was about 1/2hr from dipping below the horizon.
