Following your videos I bought the tokina lens... hope to be able to produce nice videos like yours though... ;)

@spaceboyinfinity That's great - I look forward to seeing your videos. If you're a Canon shooter you can get the lens profile online (google tokina camara raw lens profile). It'll help with barrel distortion and chromatic aberration, especially when shooting wide open at 11mm.

 any post processing?

@spaceboyinfinity In order to pull as much contrast from the sky and retain detail in foreground, I processed each frame twice from raw - exposing for each. Combined them with a photoshop mask in after effects, then mainly curves adjustments to get the desired look.
