Ray, thanks. I don't post lnks on forums but my own.
I am good with the camera for years.
I use LR and Nik Silver Effex 2. It's a great way to work.
There are many good shooters and images here. It's a blessing to find such a civil crowd.... Did I say that?

Hey, these are not clickable/contain no link to the bigger version. It's been a while, anybody know what am I not doing that I should be doing?

Nevermind, reverse engineered one of the above posts..
Theres something about the colors on this one and the previous ones you posted that I LOVE. Mind sharing what settings/post processing you did?

Guys this has to be one of the more inspiring set of photos taken with the X100. Here you can really see what the camera can do in the hands of people passionate about pictures.

Thank you.
I just went out two times only, so I left almost everything default on the camera, except white balance which I put one click towards yellow.
The jpgs that come out for me with these settings are quite flat, which I like. I used viveza 2 for some minimal dodging burning ala silver efex pro, and then I used alienexposure 3. This is perhaps similar to the in-camera film modes but I like how with this way you can add it and tone it down after the fact.
The way the photos are now they look a lot like what I saw at the scene. There are some great 'old' colours there of paints and building materials you don't see anymore and some very nice combinations of glows and reflections - so I think you might just like the colours of these backstreets close to my house.
The software does bring it out though.
Do most of you shoot raw? I normally do, but haven't up till now..

You see so many panoramas that are just as wide as they can be. Love how this one begins and ends.

Colour raw imported into LR3 with lens correction and then exported to Silver Efex pro 2. Once back in LR3 I exported a reduced file size to Photobucket for web use.

Here's another one from today's walk. The high fence to the left belongs to a theme park, although it looks more like a prison.

It's got light greys, dark greys, inbetween greys, neither/nor greys and greys beyond the range of human vision. Fantastic shot!

Thanks, i'm glad you like it. I am always pleased with how the X100 renders different shades of green and when in Silver Efex these can be enhanced by using the 'filter' function. I love this camera and Silver Efex.
