I’ve noticed that I like to oversaturate the colors of my pictures. The colors are far from real, but this is how I like them.
Can you see the cat?

Colors like this are similar to what you get when you shoot early in the morning and late in the afternoon, which is, of course, the best times for picture taking. I like to saturate mine too, but am careful to push only to the point just short of unrealistic. A lot of stuff you see on the internet is way over saturated and beyond reality. This works for some abstract subjects, but tends to make landscapes look rather fake. This shot looks rich. Very nice.

I would say they are not that far from real. Especially if you concider what you would get from slide filim. I do the same thing with my images. My goal in photography is to not only have a realistic image, but have it capture the attention of the viewer. I love the colors.

I totally agree with Cruxphoto. Without having a good sense to capture and finetune your images to attract people we should have said thanks to Nikon and not to you for the great images
I think does not matter what way you choose to express your feelings. Without such rich colors I would not feel being in that garden on a sunny afternoon…
