Genisis X 60 Posted August 4, 2011 (edited) Currently in Vietnam. Dead tired, quite hungry. Just got back from Halong bay which is awesome. I've got more photos to throw up when I get time but heres two my sleep deprived mind thinks is okay: [image removed for shittyness] More verbage to follow once I return from Sapa and sleep for about three days straight. Peace. -X Edited August 10, 2011 by Genisis X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That might work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antraman 0 Posted August 6, 2011 No I reckon the right half of that fog pig is so colourless enough that you could work on saturating the greens in the islands, and it wouldn't affect the fog or water, because they are both grey and light enough. Also thinking about the horizon issue on the first one, adding some spherical distortion to it, making the horizon on the left curve down to the left, would make for a very good picture.

Genisis X 60 Posted August 10, 2011 Ha Long bay is absolutely amazing. Even with the shitloads of tourists and the plastic bags floating around in it it's still fucking amazing. Must see for anyone coming to Vietnam. -X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gabber 53 Posted August 11, 2011 Keep up the great shots Gen. They're looking fantastic. 1st pic in the new set is just a tad too over processed. But that's just me :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genisis X 60 Posted August 11, 2011 (edited) Spent pretty much all day uploading the full version of these suckers to Redbubble These are from the villages around Sapa in north Vietnam, mainly Lao Chai and Ta Van. They have all of these little huts scattered over the place where evidently they lock up thier buffalos. Bit of a bleach bypass on this old girl: I went for the really old photo look for this one: Woke up at 5 due to jet lag so I took a walk. This kid ran past me when I was taking the left part of this photo and stopped in the perfect spot and waited for me to take a picture. The camera wasn't pointing right at him so I don't think he believed I took one of him ;) EDIT: What the fuck happened to the image scaling? O-o -X Edited August 11, 2011 by Genisis X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Genisis X 60 Posted August 12, 2011 Here's one I took today during a stroll around Hanoi. Check this dude out, he's got that whole chinese kung-fu master thing going for him. And a red bike. Red ones go faster. Peace. -X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Antraman 0 Posted August 13, 2011 The subject matter of that last pic is awesome. You could have captured that scene with a $20 disposable camera and it would still be great. I'd love to see a more high definition version of it though, i don't see a lot of detail when I zoom in, get a fair bit of pixellation. Did you apply any sharpening to it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genisis X 60 Posted August 13, 2011 Yea, I sharpened it with a high pass filter then shrank it to 1000 px. The detail is good on the big version. I think Google shrank it further when I uploaded it to g+ as well which could explain the pixellation. -X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genisis X 60 Posted August 19, 2011 Incence burning at the eight lady cave in Phong Nha national park. If I remember I'll tell you guys the story when I have time. Paradise cave (shot without a tripod as well!) This place is fucking amazing. Phong Nha national Park. Got to run to the beach now, I'll add more content when I get back! -X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
