More Landscapes

Thought I'd post a couple of landscapes I got earlier today, I've been waiting for the clouds to be just right, they came in a little towards the end but I was quite pleased with these. I did a little dodging and burning both in LR2, with the local adjustment brush and then a little more in CS3. I liked how both images semed to have a different feel to them even though they were only teken about 30 minutes apart. No foreground interest or leading lines in the second one but I thought the sky was great.

Old Industrial Photo

I was editing this photo for a pinhole camera effect but I decided to go a bit overboard with the alien skin exposure plugin and this was the result, I will put up a pinhole tutorial soon but this isn't it. I had to process the digital negative twice to bring out the sky as there wasn't much cloud detail to begin with then I just dodged the windows and burnt the clouds for a bit of added contrast. The was about 2 pixels of gaussian blur and a decent amount of vignetting to draw the eye in. This was shot at 17mm on my 350D at f4 for 1/640 (ISO 200) it was at the end of a walk and I didn't fancy getting my tripod out.
