Post by: Sunny Alan on January 31, 2015, 11:09:27 pm
An iconic shot from Jaisalmer desert in India at my last month visit.
Sony A7r with 24-105 Canon lens( I am still kept my lens bag empty, waiting for a native wide zoom).
Slight white balance adjustment to enhance the sunset hue, no post processing.

Please comment and criticise....

I've seen a lot of sunsets, this is the first green one, though ;)

Composition and content, all fine.

Colour a bit funky to my taste.

Nice scene though, a classic indeed.

+ 1 on the greenish WB ánd on the lovely classic composition and well chosen exposure.

Best Regards, Sander

I love the subject and composition, but the whole photo looks greenish (I don't have this problem with any other photos). I suggest fiddling with the color a bit and see how it looks.

Thanks for all comments.
Well, I know it is extraordinarily greenish sky with my existing WB, but at the time it is taken, just minutes before too dark, this only was possible. 'cause I cannot bring the Camels and men back, since the last safari before night, but I can change the color later to any pleasing variation !
So I took as it was and sent it for your advices to change hue accordingly.

I hope you don't mind Alan. I have changed the white balance of your jpeg but can't get rid of all of the green. With access to the RAW file you should get a very nice image IMO. Hope you are enjoying your trip and Your A7R but what white balance were you using?
