Raw files don't have any color space so it doesn't matter if you use Adobe RGB or sRGB in camera. But it does of course matter a lot when you convert to another format like jpg.

My wife and I were on a bike ride yesterday and we happened to come across this large open meadow.
The area was obviously an old farm but the state park system has been keeping this open as a hunting dog training area (according to the signage) and was quite picturesque.
I had taken my K3iii on the off chance that we would run across something just like this.
Unfortunately, I messed up a couple of the shots (bumped the shutter speed knob without noticing, severely overexposing several) and didn't notice until I got back to the computer.
Taking this as a chance to practice my post processing skills I managed to get something I actually feel isn't too bad.
Knocking the exposure down 2.6 stops.
Bumping the blacks and contrast up significantly.
Toying with the saturation and vibrance some along with some sharpening
The sky was totally blown out beyond recovery (Not a major disappointment as there wasn't much there to begin with) so I did a sky replacement from another photo I had.
I do find it mildly surprising how much we can recover from our mistakes with modern sensors and some simple post processing tools.
