gradient


Some sunsets are not so interesting but there is usually at least one frame in the lot that seems pretty good when compared to the rest.  

The colors are samples from the original without resizing shifted over a smaller window.

The pictures are shot in RAW, the white balance is off by quite a lot. The eyedropper tool in Photoshop for white balance is used to sample something in one of the photos known to be white like snow or a sign, a cloud or a highlight. The tool produces the most remarkable change instantly every pixel adjusted at once. Every pixel in every photo adjusted just like that no matter how many photos.

This is what the capture looks like in original RAW (displayed here in JPG form by necessity) before fiddling with Photoshop adjustment sliders; exposure, mid tones, black and white, lens correction, de-vignetting, lens distortion and the rest.


The  time lapse is short and not interesting. It shows only gradient change with a band of orange and descending darkness. (Flickr for improved display)

The pollution layer offers a nice shade of orange.
