Hi All,
Recently I took some pictures on a higher altitude - Untersbergbahn
GmbH. What I noticed is that they have quite a strong blue hue to them.
This however is only for the landscape pictures (mountains / valleys)
that I took. The pictures I took of people (few meters away) are just
fine. I did take gray card white balance and the one facing the sun
measures at temperature 6498 while the other (slightly tilted to be
shaded) measures at 8984. I was unable to produce a pleasing result with
either - even with standard cloud / daylight settings in DT.
I used Canon 70D with 50mm 1.4 lens with polarizing filter. However - I
did not see much difference to the pictures taken on 18-135mm lens.
DT is 2.6.2 on ubuntu 16.04
The link
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/sf7znezb45ghnr2/AADCPgrFycbSPlxaFOfSNWiHa?dl=0
contains two .jpg, CR2 and the 2 .xmp - quite unsuccessful attempt from
my side to develop the images.
All that I searched on the web points to physical challenges with high
altitude photography but I was unable to find anything specific when it
comes to developing such or if I needed special equipment (like specific
filter) to take such pictures.
Would you be able to have a look please and let me know what I am
missing? My attempt to develop the picture fails miserably comparing to
the stunning view from the mountain. The weather was a bit hazy and I
did not have a haze filter but I can't think of anything else. The
histograms fitted nicely. Is it simply some particular way to develop
such images that I am not aware of?
I would appreciate it if you can please point me in the right direction....
Thank you,
B
