The Vanity of an Ancient King

So as many of you know, I got a fancy new lens, and I am totally digging it.

I'm working a lot in colour, something rather unusual for me, as it's often *so* difficult to get it "right".

I'm also testing Adobe's Lightroom. I've used Apple's Aperture, and I have to say, Lightroom *kills* Aperture, for what I want to do with it. That said, I am not convinced I really need Lightroom, either.

Here are 2 teaser full-frame, low-res output files from Lightroom. The first is our own rockey1. The other is the extinct prehistoric Airshark, which used to rule the skies during the Paleozoic era.
