Technicolor April - Azure

We had brilliant blue skies this morning, but for some reason it was really hard to capture any of the colour - I tried metering off almost everything, polariser on (hence the vignette), polariser turned around more, polariser off... Here's the best I could eventually come up with, with saturation tweaked a little.

Beautiful blue. :)

Definitely a lovely final result. I usually use the sky itself to meter off of in shots like this, so it's odd that it wasn't working for you.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I keep running a line of a song in my head "there's a star on the far horizon, shining bright in an azure sky" but I'll have to change that to plane now. Very nice- I think you did fine with the color. Good shot!

[Sue Wilde]

@archaeofrog Me too - but it just kept washing out. I have no idea what was going on!

Beautifully done.

You did a great job capturing this azure-colored sky. I like how you surrounded it by the trees!

Nice shot! Love the color of the sky. Very blue. And you got the contrail of a high flying plane to boot! Well done! :)

I love the way you've framed this and the streak is a nice bit of action.
