Did you use a pale yellow filter with this? With computer enhancement

Kombivan, no. no filters used, and processed in Lightroom, with just the usual edits for contrast, saturation, exposure, etc. The sky really was a yellow-orange color, and the cliffs are reddish-orange..

There are some big fires in the vicinity that could have some influence on the colors... I like them! It is a good match with the colors of the seaside cliff.

I thought it might have been reflected light from the yellow where does one get lightroom free. I've never used it.

Thanks Fries! But in this case the picture was taken several months ago.... maybe LA smog

Well, can't help you with a free Lightroom copy It's not shareware... but you can download it for a free 30 day trial and see if it suits you![COLOR="Silver"]

Nice colors and composition. Reminds me of Sunset Cliffs in San Diego. Thanks.

The Palos Verdes peninsula is a neat place with lots to see. Climbing down the cliff to see the Dominator wreck remnants is a challenge for geezers like me, and of course Marineland theme park became the Terranea some time ago.
