Better? I can't really dehaze it.

Best I could do, it started losing color definition because it's a copy of a jpeg.

What bothers me is the little pieces of grass that are not blurred in the bottom right.

I was shooting in raw+jpeg, but Photos only imported the jpegs, for some reason.

They're in the same forward focal plane as the ear is, that's why they're sharp. Depth of field issue.

it's also a BYC thing. You can't upload RAW images anyway, so it's a copy of that converted to web friendly and then converted back to jpeg to edit. limits what you can really do with it before bit decay and pixel degradation get in the way. Like a copy of a copy of a copy of a photogcopy of a photo. Each version gets less clean

I'd like to know how you people can capture the color of the sunrises and sunsets. Recently I was trying to capture the effects of a sunset but was having a hard time. I was photographing a pond with the sunset behind me. It was throwing off a really cool effect, but I was having a hard time capturing it. Is it lightening? Is it a setting? Are you messing around with colors, etc. on the camera? I've been practicing with Creative Auto, and playing around with the settings, I've been able to better capture the real colors of things. Do I keep playing around with that and see what I come up with?

Chook's using his phone...

* Low ISO
* Manual Focus
* Fast shutter speed
* Wide aperture (lower f/stop)
* Set your white balance a little warmer.

Oh, ok.

Ok. Thank you! Hopefully I can come across a good sunset soon!
