Had some excellent weather for sunsets and light effects recently.
If only i had the equipment and talent to do these scenes justice. :(

I stumbled across Sepia Tone while trying to find an HDR setting on my Camera. So naturally, i had to try it out.

^Oof. That is very good.

jayhawk thats a awsome closeup. how long was the shutter speed to catch the bee ?
Thank you! :)
1/500 of a second, I set it at that and F/2.8 because it was so windy. Actually that bee just sat on the flower staring at me for a few moments. I think it just wanted to sit, because about five minutes later, it started downpouring and I had to sprint to the woods with the camera under my shirt. Keep in mind the photo you see is about 25% of the original.

This was about ten minutes before it started to rain:

Hmm.. the green of the grass looks weird. You used that HDR program, didn't you? I noticed it doesn't like prime colours that much...
 
Correct; I also think the grass looks weird, like it is metallic. Maybe a do-over. I just like the overall composition, the serenity of the grasses and the threatening of the sky.
 
That i do like. It's a great picture. I'd rather fiddle about with it with Lightroom some more. Good thing about it is that you can set luminance and saturation for each channel.
