P365, Day 133 - Camera Does Not See All The Colors Correctly

[grundyscribbling]

I haven't been retouching any of these photos, although I have cropped one or two. I may have to try adjusting the color on this one, as the camera refused to capture the full autumn glory of these leaves - it's making everything greener than it actually is and washing out the reds and oranges.

This is more like it:

Hm - might that have to do with the time of day you took the pic? In the late afternoon/early evening (as far as the natural light is concerned) I find I always have a surprising discrepancy between my own perception of colour and what the camera captures.

Speaking of colour, can you imagine that I took a pic with leaves of such colour in Germany? We had one glorious "Indian Summer" a couple of years back, and thanks to a visit in a botanical garden, trees with leaves to bring it fully out. (Copper beeches in the Botanical Garden in Heidelberg in this case).

Doubtful, when it was taken there was still good light, mid-afternoon. This camera tends to 'see' blues and greens better (it loves a blue sky and makes summer pics look great), so I'm not entirely surprised it had some trouble with this one, but I didn't expect it to look that different. (The photo looks so cold but half the reason I took the picture was the wonderful warm colors...)

That is great color! :)
