Dreadmanes prehistoric photography

Very nice... I especially like, how the grass in this picture resembles some kind of strange fern plant or something like that and does not really remind one of modern botany

Thinking the same. Grass usually ruins a diorama but in this case it works splendidly.

That sunset shot is beautiful!

You have created a highly atmospheric shot with your sunset. What did you use to create the golden light, if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks! I don't mind at all. First I lowered the cameras whitebalance setting to the lowest kelvin I could to get the warm colors. Then to get as many reflections as possible I threw peppbles in the water. Finally I added some contrast in photoshop. Hope it helps

[ceratopsian]

It does indeed. Thank you.

I have already said to you several times, but I love your shots. The Iguanodon's sunset is a masterpiece.

I love the drama of Theriz Sunset 1.  Also the atmosphere created by Quetzalcoatlus.

You've always shared awesome photos.. And "takedown" is my favorite...

But looking at "mountain pass", I just have to say I seriously envy your back yard.

I may be late to hop on the boat but wow, those are some amazing photos. Im curious on how you put in the effects of dirt or gravel spray in your pictures. That effect is amazing of how it brings the image to life.
