Absolutely gorgeous sunset, Binnur..I like your style and thank you for the raw capture. It is certainly worthwhile to experiment on colours. Love it.

Very nice Binnur, the colours in your processed image make it feel much later in the evening for me and that has a strong appeal - totally agree with finding other viewpoints for sunsets without the sun - it works very well as this image demonstrates

Thank you Mark Actually it was late in the evening when I shot this. The original raw image is brighter than the actual scene. I think it is because of my camera's poor metering ( I was using my old Canon 1100D set at AV mode). Dehaze,clarity and structure sliders added contrast to the image and I also darkened the image a bit with using a Curves adjustment layer.

I have ordered some Lee Grad ND filters because I'm a bit fed up with taking bracketed shots and/or doing a lot of PP as I usually shoot sunsets and there is always a big exposure difference between the sky and the ground.When the filters arrive , I will try spot metering to the brightest part in the frame and will shoot in the manuel mode instead of AV mode. I think this method will give me better exposed raw images and reduce my PP work.
