Even though this was Australia I kept on hearing Ennio Morricone and seeing dirty Clint at the horizon...

Way to go with the widescreen! Nice one. From one extreme to the other here Roland. The rainy mountain lushness of NZ to the barren desert wastelands of Oz! Looking fwd to this series. Must've been one crackin' trip mate.

@Stu: I liked the widescreen cause it gave it a movie kind of feeling. Thks for encouraging me ;) (already posted some of my ozzie pics earlier a couple of weeks back)

ah, have you listened to the soundtrack from "the mission"? done by the same guy :)

i like the photo *but* i think if you had just used a warmer wb it'd have been so much more moody... it looks a bit bland, cold even like this. try to shift it a bit warmer...

@eydryan: Yes, "the mission" is great stuff indeed! That guy is a genius! (However not the music i was hearing..was talking about the spaghetti westerns, like "for a few dollars more")
Didn't see it gives a cold expression till you mentioned it..was more thinking of making it look as barren as possible. (As in warmer is more inviting or something..even though it was in their 40s here.) Am still toggling with the most perfect colours..thx Eydryan!
