Your work blew me away
As Greg said before me, it looks like a film screenshot. To be exact a Spielberg's film in my opinion
Just for fun (and curiosity) I've manipulated one of your pics. This is the result:

You're a master
I hope to see other your works soon
Cheers, congrats and thanks a lot for sharing
