Here's where I live...........................

What did you do for the tilt-shift effect? Just a process in post?

Yes, I use Lightroom for all my photography editing and love how well it edits the I1 photos as well. I use a graduated filter and apply to the top and then adjust by changing contrast, exposure, clarity, etc... To create the tilt shift effect. I feel with the I1 camera, since it doesn't shoot with any depth of field really, sometimes creating a feeling of space brings life to a photo that might lack pop without it otherwise. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
 
nice shots. i will try to make a pic of where i live tomorrow if it doesnt rain... (they say it will)... fingers crossed
i dont know how i will be able to edit on my 5 year old laptop... we'll see [emoji14]
