I think it looks like a painting. Well-done with excellent composition. Definitely stress relieving. I would like to see it on canvas.
Thanks for looking Murex! I hadn't thought about a canvas, but you're right - this might be a good candidate for canvas.

Had a chance to try a new ND filter on the beach.
Thanks Sue. It was a beautiful day.

It's a very nice wide angle shot. By crop, you mean DX format?
Thanks for looking! By crop, I mean I took a horizontal slice out of the overall image to get the aspect I liked best.

Personally, I'd like more sky.
Thanks for looking. I played around alot with different crops, some leaving more sky.

Yes, this crop serves this photo well. I also like the photo nex to your name. Where was it taken?

Thanks Tim. The avatar was taken at Long Branch, NJ. If you want to see a larger version ot that image, search on "Long Branch Beach".
I like the 10x24 crop on this picture - what do you think?
Great images - I love the processing. How are you achieving that effect (if its okay to ask)?
Aside from his lack of experience which will be a significant handicap, he needs at least N+1 redundancy for every piece of equipment he brings. That means camera bodies, flash units, SD cards, batteries, battery chargers, etc. Write up a list on equipment to bring, and check it off the night prior to the wedding. He should set the D7100 up to shoot in raw and the SD cards to mirror each other. Have him find out in advance if the church allows flash. If possible , arrange for a second shooter as insurance - he will absolutely miss some shots. Check autofocus throught the day. Maybe most importantly, set expectations with the bride and groom appropriately. There are so many things involved with successfully shooting a wedding, the equipment is the least of his worries. Although it may look easy, there really is no substitute for experience.

This is a piece of software that manipulates the image to be printed as 1200 DPI. The problem is that the 1200 DPI claim not possible. A 600 DPI printer will still be 600 DPI however hard you* try to claim achieving that 1200 DPI feat.
That the software manipulation leave artifacts is normal. Now, if you or anyone else is willing to live with that (see arrows) that is fine. As to the image you posted just look and compare and you will see problems in there too. Just more subtle. I find the Mosaic problem interesting. Looks like a magazine scanned image, not a inkjet/laser print scan. I compared all other sets by D/L then flipped to check them.
So forgive me for debunking this 1200 DPI lie** and pointing out the problems in processed images.
I did not address the other flat out misinformation about LR this time.
On the printer driver (ICC profile) can it be improved to get better results? I do not doubt that but then again, the 1200 DPI claim gets in the way.
Am I wrong to point out the issues w/o trying this? No.
Are you wrong to say you like it? Absolutely not. If you like the result, that is good for you. For me, looking at samples that are supposed to convince to purchase this? Sorry, they are driving me away as much as the false claim.

Okay, so now that we've determined you won't believe your lying eyes, I have another (and final) suggestion for you. Check out Luminous Landscape's printing forum. Search on "Qimage overdrive", and look at the first couple of posts. The commentors on this forum are universally acknowledged to be some of the best and brightest when it comes to all things printers. However, since you already called Mike Chaney a liar, I suspect that won't make any difference to you. Its kind of like a high school football coach saying Bill Belichik doesn't know what he's doing.
