orio, you cannot fool me. #1&4 are not photographs, they are paintings, and you are not scavullo, but are el greco!

i just love these, and i think 1 is one of the finest landscape i have ever seen.

Color on all these shots is impressively clean and rich. Was there much post done with these?

I only made the sky blue a bit denser in some of the photos, like I always do with landscapes in order to balance the slight overexposure of the sky that is necessary to balance the global exposure with the ground.
I made more contrasted versions of the cinque terre pictures that I showed in another thread, but the reaction was not always positive, so I dropped those.

Damn that's sharp!

I would love to see a 100% crop of the reflections in those wineglasses...

Amazing images guys Smile

I guess photos by the ZE/ZF version of the lens must go to a separate thread ?
