If you have noiseware (which is something I need to get too...) I would run it through there. Those are 2 stunning shots!!!

The first one you can add ever so slight amount of contrast.

The comp and setting are GORGEOUS! You should feel proud of them!!!

Default Wow

What a first post. Both shots are incredible. About the noise mentioned earlier, I noticed that the pictures never look so good when posted through this site. Consider flickr, once I started flickr my shots look so much better.

Welcome and job well done, especially love the trees

I've been looking at Dfine 2.0 by Nik Software and thinking more and more about getting it. I just got the Capture NX2 bundled with Color Efex 3.0 and it's been interesting to say the least when it comes to playing with it. I've always shot jpeg fine, and just started shooting raw + jpeg fine. I'm using a Nikon D90 with the 18-200 VR lens. Thanks for the comments =)

Great shots! The sunset one is amazing!! This is a great site, I just found it too, be careful though it's addictive! (I am wanting to upgrade to the D90 as well and see that you have got the lens I would be considering too...)
