Nice light on the weekend

Some of you will know the UK had the hottest September day in a long time last week. I took the day off work and went out with my camera to capture some of the rare Scottish Autumn light. First shot is from Saturday which turned straight back to dreary wash-out.

The second photo is beautiful. Just curious, did you photoshop the colors/brightness in the first pic or is that natural?

Great robin shot; and some nice colors overall.

Beatiful shots. In the 6th one, the red light and it's reflection in the water, is kind of distracting. I would clone that out. Otherwise they all look very peaceful. Nice colors.

Hi it's pretty much out of the camera. I used to use the punch setting in Lightroom - ie: added clarity and vibrance, but I have turned that off these days. The flash seemed to help with the saturation as it was a very dreary day.

Thanks for the feedback everyone, I appreciate it.

At first glance, I thought the bird was fake. Nice pictures.
