I took this photo a few days ago, and initially wasn’t quite sure what to make of it. I wasn’t wild about it, but got into one of those situations where I was playing around with editing software to see if maybe there was a simple “fix” (white balance, exposure, etc.). Not to get into a post-processing vs. “captured in the camera” debate, but I generally try to do as little editing as possible, while still getting an aesthetically pleasing (to me) image.
After about half an hour (which is much longer than I usually spend), I finally got it to a place I was happy with.")
