I have a question about green hue and saturation. I have cataracts that will soon have surgery and to my eyes the greens looked flat so I tweaked their hue and increased the saturation. I know I've had friend photographers with cataracts and when I didn't yet have them often the colors in their photos seemed off and over saturated. What do you think? The blues really were intense when we walked on this gorgeous trail.
Thanks for your visits, comments, suggestions, favs
The trees look likely they're mostly coniferous, so you're probably not going to get a lot of vivid greens from deciduous leaves having lots of different angles to the light (especially young, light-green leaves). My 2¢ worth! Besides, this image is about the beautiful blues of the water and sky!
I like the saturation because it is how it felt to you when you saw it. I have early cataracts too and so does my Dad. I notice his photo colour balance choices are very different to mine and different to how they used to be, which I suspect is age and cataracts.
This is a lovely scene, the water pulls the viewer to the mountains. Super intense blue in the sky and water, maybe you could lighten them and just see how it looks?
