Hi all,

I didn't know this photographer and discover him in the last issue of Outdoor Photographer magazine.
Very strong photographs with a big sense of colors.
Do you know other photographers with the same photographic spirit?

Try Joseph Holmes; the same kind of color sense, with a long history of involvement in cutting edge digital printing. Love his work, even if the colors seem a bit over the top in some images. Also try Christopher Burkett; he has a fabulous eye for color and detail.

Thanks for refering this photo site. This reminds me several mates from a digital photography class.
When we first learned how to tweak the saturation, it's pretty much all things look like these photos.
The trick was "warmer, warmer, warmer", and "more saturation, more saturation, more saturation".
Alas we got tired of that pretty soon.

We then got into the other extreme, instead of over-saturate everything, we black-and-white everything.
