Heading to the sun

I set white balance to camera reference and then used the eyedropper in color calibration module to set white balance to the footpath to remove the blue cast which I felt didn’t belong in the picture of the warm afternoon glow (personal opinion only and not necessarily correct opinion)

Thanks a lot for your valuable advice.
Your edit also looks super great to me. Although the overall photo is bright, the people in the photo are focused with the warm light.
Hope to learn more on playraw!

Thanks for the image :slightly_smiling_face: I notice I’ve let the highlights ‘blow’ to near white rather more than the other versions - to me it looks natural I think, but I’m not so sure after seeing the others

Thanks for sharing the photograph.
Another of my crazy interpretations in GIMP. I have tried to emphasise the halos around the heads of the people - lots of artifacts!


acts!
