Landscape Colours. Pictures taken today in the Malvern Hills - UK
 
2 Attachment(s)
Just thought I'd show what the end of Summer start of Autumn (Nearly BoB day Sept-15th) look like with a little sun.

Images taken have had no colour balancing. They were shot RAW and the light indicates it was 5600K.

Interesting to see what Harvested fields and tree lines actually look like.

Cheers, MP

As many have always said, the trees are much darker in RL. These pictures are also in above average clarity, i.e. low haze. It usually worse in the SE.

It also looks like fairly early morning (is that Breedon Hill in pic 2?), and actually CloD does much better with a low sun. I always felt Oleg had a valid point about washed-out colours in the middle of the day.

Good pics!

Ah, I was obviously out in guessing the direction! Of course you're looking FROM the Malvern Hills towards Breedon Hill.

Lovely area, do you live there?

Real life...

V1

V1.08

Prefer V1.08 but it needs to be somewhere in-between the two, also the hills could be a bit more defined.

Yes, a predominance of dark, bushy trees inflate clusters.

Apart from the "darker trees", I guess it's this kind of photographic chromatic contrast that is just very hard to reproduce through CloD's graphics engine.

And what I really, REALLY miss is some layered cloud like this.
In all the times I've every been flown over the channel, it's never been cloud free. Even when it is cloud free, it's usually very hazy high pressure weather.

It would also massively change the game dynamics.
