Lovely. Are you doing HDR or something to it? What's the magic? <font color=#590000>CC: Thank you! No I haven't done any HDR. Actually I haven't done anything big to most of my photos, only add frame and watermark on photoshop. Slight adjustment on the brightness to save for web. That's all. The only one that's been mortified more so far is the picture of '<a href="http://www.quaintmelody.com/2008/08/lets-talk-about-weather.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Let’s talk about weather</a>' to create the more dramatic look. I believe in originality in photos, therefore don't want to edit them too much. What you see here is pretty much what I saw through the lens. But if you're after that more vibrant effect for your photo, you can consider applying the velvia technique on photoshop. Check out the instruction <a href="http://www.reflectiveimages.com/digitalvelvia.htm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a>. Hope that helps!</font> Dear CC, your pictures look so colourful and vibrant!! Lovely. Are you doing HDR or something to it? What’s the magic?
