I ran across these photos and lots of people have asked him for his post processing, but he hasn't posted his steps yet. They looked "HDR" , but he answered back that they were not. Anyone have any tips or comments on what he did for the toning?

I'm just getting into post-processing.

Thanks

    It is considered very poor taste to post other folks images without their express consent, as well as copyright infringement.

    I have modded your post to display links, not images, which is the preferred technique here on dgrin. They are great shots, aren't they? Cross lit.



    As Dustin says in his blog, it is all in the lighting. He says most of his processing is done in 30 seconds. The remaining 10 % takes 4-5 minutes. The images are desaturated slightly to my eye, and run through a High Pass filter a bit. The skin may have been masked out to diminish the desaturation in the skin tones also.
