I think they're just high-quality originals that have a decent amount of post work applied manipulating lighting. Hasselblad is obviously a great line of cameras but I don't think it was the camera that made these pictures look how they appear in the final version.

Re: what is this?

I just need to learn lighting, composition, CGI,.. and i will make my Hasselblad singing and shining.

I will go to USA [NYC] for my vacation, and i hope there i can get into high quality photography, i was not sure to take my Hasselblad with me as i am scared there, but at the end i decided i will take it with me for the first time.

Also my dream in the future is to be one of those Hasselblad Masters.

Mmmhhh... Hassleblad has 16 bit raw files and the quality is a bit more good than any other camera, however, that camera in wrong hands will produces bad pictures.

The post is quite weird, but there is a lot of d&b in order to make all like shinny, that's for sure but don't know how the retoucher gets that drawing/painting effect. Reducing the tonal values you can get a more graphic look, but this is just a little detail to kep in mind.

The photos in the hasselblad section are just amazing, really, thanks for brought these images
