[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The sunset. It was a really good day: sunny and windy. The kiter is packing his kite. In a couple of minutes he'll be done with disassembling, will walk to his car parked on the roadside. When he turns the engine on the day will be over.
I wish all of us could spend as much of our days as possible the way this guy does.

Processing in Photoshop: RAW-converting, framing,resizing.
The result I received (which you can see as main posted image) was pretty different from RAW-original colors. Although, I only converted RAW to jpg using a built-in RAW-converter (raised exposure to about +0,3, only slightly played with brightness-contrast options..)
When I looked at the image I had posted it was too "flat" and greenish. I decided to convert RAW-original in ACDSee. While converting I applied minor changes to the curve of the image. What I had as result was much more similar to original RAW. I post this image as a workshop. I am not sure how the instruments I used in post-processing in both options can give different colors of the image.

Hey Olga!

An impressive scenery. You`ve captured it well, so a good composition and a point of view. Too bad the cars are just a bit obstructive. But the colors are good, so is the lighting and clarity. A fine one.

Enjoy.

Лично мне нравится кайтер в углу :)
Шучу. Хорошая фотография, настоящие цвета.

по моему чуть в лево наклонилось
