Neat!
Protip: When you fuck up the exposure, just make it BW and pretend you were going for a silhouette the whole time

Any tips for getting a more colorful sky? I find that I get the same kind of dull sky in a lot of my pictures

Polorizer filters helps alot and brings out blues. But of course, PP can make the difference as well.

good edit synth, sky looks better

sky is tough, sometimes really tough, sometimes if it looks too drab I'll enhance it with saturation/vibrance selectively. sometimes (rarely) if it looks REALLY drab (read: empty) and I want to spice it up, I'll do some kind of gradient filter on it to give it color.

mix of both. I absolutely LOVE taking photos and I take a lot just for fun. but I also make some dough here and there, hardly enough to make a living off of though.

lol. I'm not sure why I'm included in this question, but strictly hobby. Although one time I shot for my cousin's kid communion and was given a thank you card and a $25 Visa card.

synth you've had stuff published in magazines. personally I think if you've done that, you're beyond a hobbyist.

Had a mini family vacation in Montreal this past weekend. I snapped a few - all with my Olympus. The small form factor makes it much better for hanging out with the family and walking around.

Enjoy...
