haha, you do have a sharp eye, Akjack.



Glamourfish, I had a very similar question when I saw Egill Bjarki's work here in Pbase, so I understand you perfectly!

Unfortuantely I have zero competence to answer your question myself, so I can't be of help, but out of curiosity, I went to your site and checked some of your people galleries. You have such a fine sense of color! It appears to me you have developed your own visual style. Now I'm curious how the look/feel/toning is achieved in your "extreme" gallery, eh..OK, I shall refrain from asking, too. But anyway, good work you've done!

nobody really answered this question, because it does not just look an HDR effect that was used to obtain this style of PP

I once asked someone I know here how he did it, and he sort of created a semi-automatic workflow to do it. But it's hard, and you need to work into the details of your photo.

Look at these, I love them, although they may be too sharp for the taste of some of you.

Yiannis is a really marvelous photographer. As for people, I especially like this one of his:

and this one:

He may go for ultimate sharpness (in a way we don't quite usually see in
real life) but there are few of those halos or unnatural buildups and it
does help us 'focus'...
